White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Blondies
Description
This recipe produces blondies with a dense yet tender crumb, lifted by the addition of vanilla bean seeds for subtle aromatic depth. Brown sugar and butter cream together to provide a moist base, while white chocolate chips add sweetness and macadamia nuts contribute a satisfying crunch. Baking at 350°F for 35 minutes ensures the bars are baked through but remain soft inside.
The bars are baked in an 8x8 pan lined with parchment paper for easy removal and clean slicing. The slight moistness inside is perfect for anyone who enjoys classic blondies with a creamy and crunchy mix of textures.
Cooling completely before cutting helps the bars set properly, producing neat squares that hold their shape well. These blondies make a good treat for dessert or snack time, storing well at room temperature.
Ingredients
- 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter at room temperature
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 2 egg large
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- vanilla bean seeds seeds of 1 vanilla bean
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips heaping cup
- 1/2 cup macadamia nuts heaping cup, coarsely chopped
Instructions
- Set oven to 350F
- Line an 8×8 pan with parchment, this will make the blondies easy to remove and to cut cleanly. If you don’t use parchment, lightly grease the pan.
- Measure out your flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl. Whisk to combine.
- Cream the butter and sugar until fluffy. Then add the eggs, one at a time, the vanilla, and vanilla bean seeds, and mix well.
- Add the flour mixture and mix until just combined.
- Fold in the nuts and white chocolate.
- Spread evenly in your pan and bake for 35 minutes— a toothpick inserted near the center should come out moist with a few crumbs and the blondies will be light golden.
- Cool before cutting.
