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 large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Stir until smooth and well combined.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, mixing until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Don’t overmix!
- Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow the blondies to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Cut into squares and serve!
