Ingredients
Blondies
- ½ cup unsalted butter 1 stick, melted
- 1 large egg
- 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 unsalted butter, softened
- 1 ½ cups confectioners’ sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon salt or to taste
- about 1/2 white chocolate chips
- about 3 to 4 tablespoons red and green or holiday sprinkles
Instructions
Blondies:
- Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil, spray with cooking spray; set aside.
- To a large, microwave-safe bowl add the butter and heat to melt, about 1 minute on high power.
- Wait momentarily before adding the egg so you don’t scramble it. Add the egg, brown sugar, vanilla, and whisk until smooth.
- Add the flour, salt, and stir until just combined, don’t overmix.
- Add the white chocolate chips and stir to combine.
- 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.
- Place pan on a wire rack to cool completely before frosting.
Cup of Yum
Frosting:
- Use store bought frosting OR to a large bowl, add the cream cheese, butter, and beat with a handheld electric mixer until smooth.
- Add the confectioners’ sugar, vanilla, salt, and beat to incorporate and until frosting is smooth.
- Spread frosting evenly over bars.
- Evenly sprinkle the white chocolate chips and sprinkles before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Frosting: You may also use one 14-ounce tub store-bought whipped cream cheese frosting instead.
- Storage: Bars will keep airtight at room temp for up to 5 days. I am comfortable storing frosted items at room temp but if you’re not, store in the fridge.
