Ingredients
Blondies Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup fresh raspberries (lightly mashed or whole)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal.
- Melt Butter: In a large mixing bowl, melt 1/2 cup of unsalted butter using the microwave or stovetop until fully melted and slightly cooled.
- Mix Sugars: Add 1 cup of brown sugar and 1/2 cup of granulated sugar to the melted butter. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and combined.
- Add Eggs and Vanilla: Incorporate 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract into the butter and sugar mixture. Stir well until the batter is even and smooth.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt to distribute the leavening agents and salt evenly.
- Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently just until combined to avoid overmixing which can toughen the blondies.
- Fold in Chocolate and Raspberries: Carefully fold 1 cup of white chocolate chips and 1 cup of fresh raspberries into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed without crushing the raspberries too much.
- Spread Batter in Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly, smoothing the top with a spatula for uniform baking.
- Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes. The blondies are done when the edges turn light golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs but no wet batter.
- Cool: Remove the pan from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes. Then transfer the blondies onto a wire rack to cool completely, which helps them set properly.
- Cut and Enjoy: Once cooled, cut the blondies into squares or bars and serve. These treats are delicious whether served warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- For best results, use fresh raspberries and gently fold them in to prevent the batter from turning pink too much.
- You can substitute white chocolate chips with chunks for a different texture.
- Store blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate up to a week.
- For a gluten-free option, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free baking blend.
- Ensure not to overbake to keep the blondies soft and chewy rather than dry.
