Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
How to Make Chocolate Chip Blondies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the brown sugar and granulated sugar until well combined.
- Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
- Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Let the blondies cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into squares and serve!
Tips for the Best Results
- Make sure your butter is melted but not too hot to avoid scrambling the eggs.
- Use a light hand when mixing the dry ingredients into the wet ones to maintain the chewy texture.
- Let the blondies cool completely before cutting to ensure clean edges.
Easy Variations
- Add 1 cup of chopped nuts, such as walnuts or pecans, for extra crunch.
- Substitute half of the chocolate chips with white chocolate or butterscotch chips for a different flavor profile.
- Mix in 1/2 cup of shredded coconut for a tropical twist.
What to Serve With It
- A scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side for a decadent dessert experience.
- Fresh berries to add a tangy contrast to the sweetness.
- A drizzle of chocolate or caramel sauce for an extra indulgent treat.
