Description

These white chocolate blondies are soft, chewy, and packed with sweet white chocolate flavor. With a golden, crackly top and gooey center, they’re the ultimate treat for any dessert lover!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (plus extra for topping)
  • 1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional, like macadamia or pecans)

Instructions

  • Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or grease it lightly.
  • Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and brown sugar until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
  • Add the Dry Ingredients: Sift in the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gently fold until just combined—do not overmix.
  • Fold in the Chocolate: Stir in the white chocolate chips and nuts (if using). The batter will be thick.
  • Bake: Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle extra white chocolate chips on top for a pretty finish.
  • Bake Time: Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  • Cool & Serve: Let the blondies cool completely in the pan before slicing. This helps them set for that perfect chewy texture!

Notes

  • For extra chewiness, slightly underbake the blondies and let them cool before cutting.
  • Want a gooier texture? Swap ¼ cup of the flour for cornstarch.
  • For a festive touch, mix in dried cranberries or sprinkle sea salt on top.
  • Double the recipe for a 9×13-inch pan—just add 5-10 more minutes to the baking time.
