Ingredients
Scale
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups light brown sugar (packed)
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Add-ins
- 1 ½ cups white chocolate chips or chunks
- 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
Instructions
- Prep Your Pan and Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a little overhang on the sides for easy removal. Lightly grease the parchment with butter or non-stick spray to ensure your blondies come out cleanly. Using parchment prevents the edges from sticking and keeps your blondies perfectly square.
- Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and light brown sugar. Whisk together until smooth and glossy, ensuring no sugar clumps remain. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract. Continuously whisk after adding the eggs to prevent curdling and ensure a silky batter.
- Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a rubber spatula. Mix just until incorporated to avoid making the blondies tough.
- Add the Chocolate and Raspberries: Gently fold in the white chocolate chips or chunks until evenly distributed. Carefully fold in the raspberries, trying not to break them too much. If using frozen raspberries, add them straight from the freezer to prevent the batter from becoming watery.
- Bake the Blondies: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Avoid overbaking—the center should still be slightly soft and will firm up as it cools.
- Cool and Slice: Allow the blondies to cool in the pan for 15–20 minutes. Use the parchment overhang to lift them out and place on a cooling rack. Once fully cooled, slice into squares or rectangles. Clean your knife between cuts for perfectly neat slices and to prevent dragging crumbs through the bars.
Notes
- Using parchment paper with an overhang makes it easy to lift the blondies out of the pan for clean cutting.
- Add raspberries carefully to avoid breaking and turning the batter pink or watery.
- Frozen raspberries can be added directly without thawing to maintain batter consistency.
- Do not overmix the batter to keep the blondies tender and moist.
- Watch the baking time closely; the center should remain soft when done.
- Clean your knife between slices to ensure neat blondie bars.
