Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup crushed Oreo cookies
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup assorted candy (M&M's, etc.)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter and brown sugar. Mix well until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Add the two large eggs and the vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture. Beat until fully incorporated and the mixture is light in color.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the crushed Oreo cookies, chocolate chips, and assorted candy until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove the blondies from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
- After cooling, lift the blondies out of the pan using the parchment paper (if used) and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once fully cooled, cut into 12 squares and serve. Enjoy your Candy Oreo Monster Blondie Bars!
Tips
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure your eggs are at room temperature for better incorporation and a smoother batter.
- Don't Overmix: When combining wet and dry ingredients, mix just until they're incorporated. Overmixing can lead to tough blondies.
- Customize Your Candy: Feel free to experiment with different types of candy. M&M's, chopped candy bars, or even sprinkles can add extra fun!
- Check for Doneness: Use the toothpick test - it should come out with a few moist crumbs, but not wet batter.
- Cool Completely: Let the blondies cool entirely before cutting to ensure clean, neat squares.
- Storage Tip: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or refrigerate for extended freshness.
- Serve with Flair: For an extra indulgent touch, serve slightly warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
