Recipe: Best Blondies Ever

Blondies are my favorite go-to dessert.  I bring them when delivering a meal to someone, or when we are invited somewhere for dinner.  To be totally decadent, they also make a great base for a brownie sundae.  Add vanilla ice cream, hot fudge, and whipped cream and you will have something totally scrumptious and ridiculously fattening to enjoy.  They freeze well too.  A couple of people have asked me for my recipe recently, so here it is!

Ingredients:

1 cup of unsalted butter (2 sticks), melted
2 cups of light brown sugar, firmly packed
2 teaspoons of baking powder
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of vanilla
2 cups of all-purpose flour
2 eggs
1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips or milk chocolate chips.  I’ve also used dark chocolate.  ALL are delicious choices.

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Butter a 9 x 13 baking dish.

Pour the melted butter into a large mixing bowl. Add the brown sugar.

Mix thoroughly.

Stir in the baking powder, salt and vanilla.

Slowly add the flour.

In a separate bowl, whisk 2 eggs well.

Add to the blondie batter.

Mix well.

Mix in the chocolate chips.

Pour into the prepared 9 x 13 baking dish.

Spread the batter around the pan as evenly as possible.  Bake for 36 minutes (the center should still be gooey, which makes all the difference!)

Cool before cutting!

Happy eating!
