Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350F (180C), grease and flour an 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) square cake pan.
- In a large bowl whisk together the flour, salt and baking powder.
- In a medium bowl stir to combine the eggs, sugar, melted butter and vanilla, then add to the flour mixture and stir just until combined (do-not over stir), fold in half the pitted cherries and chocolate chips.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared cake pan and top with remaining cherries and sprinkle with remaining chocolate chips. Bake for approximately 20-25 minutes, halfway through rotate the pan. Let cool, dust with powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
- Frozen cherries work too, just add the frozen cherries directly to the batter, do not thaw them. Although it will probably take a little bit longer to cook.
- To tell when they are baked it depends on the type of Blondie/Brownie you prefer, if you like a fudge like bar then you need to look for a few crumbs stuck to the toothpick when tasting for doneness. If you prefer a cake type bar then the toothpick should come out clean.
- I found these bars were perfect when the edges just started to pull away from the sides of the pan and the middle was just starting to crack.
- Blondies should be stored in a covered airtight container or tightly wrapped in plastic. They will keep up to three days at room temperature or up to a week in the fridge. Although they are best eaten within two days.
- Be sure to cut the Blondies (Brownies too) just before serving, cutting them before can dry them out.
- They can also be frozen. I find it best to slice the cooled blondies, then place them in a freezer safe container or tin. Separate the layers with parchment paper. Thaw the blondies in the fridge. They will last up to three months in the freezer.
