Looking for a dessert that’s richer than a standard brownie but simpler to make? These Brown Butter Blondies are the ultimate treat. By browning the butter, we unlock a deep, nutty caramel flavor that pairs perfectly with the sweetness of white chocolate chips. With a crackly top and a dense, fudgy center, this easy blondie recipe will quickly become a household favorite
Ingredients:
- Salted Butter: 120g
- Brown Sugar: 155g
- Egg: 1 large
- Vanilla Extract: 1 tsp
- Baking Powder: ½ tsp
- All-purpose Flour: 130g
- White Chocolate Chips: 70g
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Place the salted butter in a pan over medium heat. Melt the butter, stirring occasionally, until it begins to foam and turn a beautiful nutty brown. Once it reaches that golden-brown color and smells toasted, remove it from the stove immediately. Sieve the butter into a bowl and let it cool to room temperature.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder until well combined.
- Once the brown butter has cooled, stir in the brown sugar until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla extract, whisking until the mixture is fully incorporated and glossy.
- Gradually add the flour mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Fold in the white chocolate chips for that perfect pockets of sweetness.
- Preheat your oven to 180°C. Line an 8" x 8" baking tray with parchment paper and pour in the batter, smoothing the top. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the edges are golden and the center is set.
- Let the blondies cool in the pan for a bit before transferring them to a wire rack. Slice into squares and enjoy the rich, buttery goodness!
Qrious Tip:
- For the best texture, don't overbake! The blondies should still have a slight wiggle in the middle when you pull them out—they will firm up perfectly as they cool.
