Chocolate Chip Blondies
Chocolate Chip Blondies are a dense, chewy baked treat combining a buttery brown sugar base with semi-sweet chocolate chips. The batter includes all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, melted butter, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla. The blondies bake in a 9x9 pan until a toothpick comes out clean, yielding a rich, sweet bar with melty chocolate pockets and an optional finish of flakey sea salt for contrast.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅔ cup butter melted and cooled, unsalted
- 1 ¾ cups light brown sugar packed
- 2 large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract pure
- 1 ½ cups semisweet chocolate chips
- sea salt optional, flakey
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x9-inch baking pan with foil or parchment and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the butter and brown sugar. Add eggs and vanilla, mixing until well combined. Gradually add in dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
- Spread the batter into the prepared pan. Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 35 to 38 minutes. If desired, top immediately with a little flakey sea salt. Remove pan to wire rack and cool completely before cutting.
