Dulce de Leche Blondies
Description
Dulce de Leche Blondies combine a traditional blondie batter made from butter, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, flour, baking soda, and salt with a creamy dulce de leche caramel layer. The batter is divided, with half spread in a pan and baked partially before pouring melted dulce de leche over it. Dollops of remaining batter are dropped over the caramel and swirled to create an attractive marbled effect.
Baking continues until the blondies are golden brown and set, with a chewy but tender crumb and rich caramel flavor imparted by the dulce de leche. Cooling completely before cutting ensures clean squares and allows the caramel to set properly.
These blondies can be enjoyed as a sweet treat or dessert with coffee or milk. Their layered appearance and rich taste make them a satisfying option for caramel lovers.
The caramel is melted gently in evaporated milk over low heat until smooth, then partially reserved for drizzling on the finished blondies for extra visual appeal and flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup brown sugar firmly packed
- 2 egg
- 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 caramel candy 14 oz package
- 1/2 cup evaporated milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 13x9 baking pan and set aside.
- In a medium sized bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer until creamy. Add in eggs and vanilla and beat until smooth. Gradually add in the flour mixture, beating over low speed.
- Spread 1/2 of mixture into the bottom of prepared baking pan, using a spatula to spread evenly. Bake in preheated oven for 7-8 minutes.
- While bottom layer is baking, begin melting caramels in the evaporated milk in a medium sized saucepan over very low heat. Stir frequently until completely melted and smooth, about 10 minutes.
- Reserve about 1/3 cup melted caramel for drizzling over finished blondies. Pour remaining caramel over baked layer. Drop dollops of remaining dough over caramel layer, and swirl slightly with a knife. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool in pan on wire rack.
- When completely cooled, cut into squares. Reheat reserved caramel (I heated mine in the microwave) and drizzle over the top of the blondies. Enjoy!
Notes
- Use gentle heat and frequent stirring to melt caramels smoothly with evaporated milk.
- Reserve a portion of the melted caramel to drizzle on top of cooled blondies for added presentation and flavor.
- Allow blondies to cool fully in the pan before slicing to achieve clean cuts and set texture.
- This recipe originates from The Cookie Bible and produces rich, caramel-infused blondies.
