These blondies get their dense, chewy texture from melted butter and brown sugar, baked until the edges turn golden and the center stays soft. They come together in one bowl with no mixer required, making them a quick option for lunchboxes, potlucks, or a simple weeknight treat.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Method
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the two long sides, and lightly grease the paper.
-
In a large bowl, whisk the melted butter and brown sugar together until smooth and no lumps remain.
-
Whisk in the eggs and vanilla extract until the mixture is glossy and well combined.
-
Sprinkle the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt over the wet mixture, then stir with a spatula just until no dry streaks remain; do not overmix.
-
Fold in the chocolate chips, reserving a small handful to scatter over the top.
-
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan, pressing it into the corners, and scatter the reserved chocolate chips over the surface.
-
Bake until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, 28 to 32 minutes.
-
Cool the blondies completely in the pan on a wire rack before lifting out using the parchment overhang and slicing into 16 bars.
