Ingredients

Blondies
  • ½ cup butter 1 stick, melted, unsalted
  • 1 egg large
  • 1 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt or to taste
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
Frosting
  • 6 ounces cream cheese softened (lite okay)
  • ¼ cup butter unsalted, softened
  • 1 ½ cups confectioners’ sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon salt or to taste
  • white chocolate chips about 1/2 (amount unspecified
  • red sprinkles about 3 to 4 tablespoons, also called holiday sprinkles
  • green sprinkles about 3 to 4 tablespoons, also called holiday sprinkles

Instructions

Blondies:
    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil, spray with cooking spray; set aside.
  2. To a large, microwave-safe bowl add the butter and heat to melt, about 1 minute on high power.
  3. Wait momentarily before adding the egg so you don’t scramble it. Add the egg, brown sugar, vanilla, and whisk until smooth.
  4. Add the flour, salt, and stir until just combined, don’t overmix.
  5. Add the white chocolate chips and stir to combine.
  6. Turn batter out into prepared pan, smoothing the top lightly with a spatula as necessary. Bake for about 20 to 22 minutes, or until top is set in center and done; don’t overbake. Blondies firm up as they cool. A toothpick should come out clean, or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter.
  7. Place pan on a wire rack to cool completely before frosting.
Frosting:
  1. Use store bought frosting OR to a large bowl, add the cream cheese, butter, and beat with a handheld electric mixer until smooth.
  2. Add the confectioners’ sugar, vanilla, salt, and beat to incorporate and until frosting is smooth.
  3. Spread frosting evenly over bars.
  4. Evenly sprinkle the white chocolate chips and sprinkles before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • You may substitute store-bought whipped cream cheese frosting for the homemade frosting if desired.
  • Store blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • Keeping frosted bars at room temperature maintains frosting texture, but refrigeration is possible if preferred.
