Ingredients

  • 2 sticks (227 grams) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 3/4 cups (350 grams) light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs plus 1 egg yolk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine salt
  • 2 cups (254 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup (80 grams) sweetened shredded coconut
  • 8 ounces (227 grams) semisweet chocolate*, chopped into chunks

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8 by 8-inch metal baking pan with foil or parchment, leaving an overhang. Spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the butter and sugar with a rubber spatula. Add the eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla and stir until combined. Stir in the salt and flour. The mixture will be a thick dough-like batter. Stir in 3/4 of the coconut and chocolate chunks.
  3. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with the remaining coconut and chocolate chunks, pressing into the batter slightly. Bake for about 40 minutes, or until set but still slightly gooey.
  4. Allow to cool before cutting into bars using a big sharp knife or a big plastic knife. For cleaner cuts, wipe the blade under hot running water between cuts.
  5. Cover and store blondies at room temperature for up to 3 days. If desired, reheat slightly in the microwave before serving.

Notes

  • *Feel free to use chocolate chips in place of the chopped chocolate, if preferred. You will need 1 heaping cup.
