Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 25 mins
Total Time: 35 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 16 blondies

Ingredients

  1. 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  2. 1 cup brown sugar
  3. 1 egg
  4. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  5. 1 cup all-purpose flour
  6. 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  7. 1/4 teaspoon salt
  8. 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and brown sugar until smooth and well combined.
  3. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture becomes light and slightly fluffy.
  4. In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt to ensure no lumps remain.
  5. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Fold in about 3/4 cup of chocolate chips, reserving the remaining 1/4 cup for topping.
  7. Transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips on top.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  9. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes.
  10. Use the parchment paper overhang to lift the blondies out of the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  11. Once cooled, cut into 16 equal squares and serve.

Tips

  1. Use room temperature ingredients to ensure smooth mixing and consistent texture.
  2. Don't overmix the batter - this can lead to tough, dense blondies instead of soft, chewy ones.
  3. Line your baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal and clean cutting.
  4. For extra richness, use high-quality butter and vanilla extract.
  5. Allow blondies to cool completely before cutting to help them set and maintain their shape.
  6. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer preservation.
  7. For variations, try adding chopped nuts, white chocolate chips, or a sprinkle of sea salt on top.
