Ingredients
The following ingredients have 16 Servings
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (, 1 stick)
- 3/4 cup light brown sugar (, packed)
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour (, spooned into cup and leveled off)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt or table salt
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (, optional but recommended )
Instruction
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Then place the butter in a heavy bottom sauce pan and heat over medium heat. Cook for about 3-5 minutes, swirling the pan every so often. Allow the butter to brown (when it turns an amber golden color and has a nutty aroma, it’s done). Remove from the heat and then pour into a bowl and allow to cool for 5 minutes.
- In the large bowl add the brown sugar and mix with an electric mixer until combined. Then add the egg and vanilla and a mix until smooth.
- Next add the flour, baking powder and salt. Stir just until barely combined. Add the white chocolate chips and stir until smooth. Be careful to not over mix.
- Line a 8x8" pan with parchment paper. Then press the dough into the pan. Press extra white chocolate chips on top if desired. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes clean and the edges are lightly golden brown. Be careful not to over bake.
- Allow to cool slightly in pan and then you can remove the blondies with the parchment paper to finish cooling. Once cooled, cut into 16 squares with a plastic knife. Serve and enjoy.
