The blondies also called the "blonde brownies" is an American recipe almost identical to the classic brownies. It is a very rich and melt-in-the-mouth cake, made with simple ingredients, flour, butter, eggs and sugar.

Very easy and quick to prepare, I use white chocolate chips, which you can easily replace with semi-sweet chocolate chip or do without.

And to add more flavor to this melting texture you can add crushed nuts, almonds, hazelnut or pecan nuts. Or even tastier by adding peanut butter or a brown butter version by following the indications below in the ingredients notes.

Why choose chocolate chip blondies :

• It is incredibly melting in the mouth and not at all dry.
• Tasty with these white chocolate chips.
• It's an easy and quick recipe to prepare for the snack.
• It contains ingredients that we all have in our cupboards.

And if you like brownies, you should try the Oreo brownies or this chocolate marble brownies.

Useful tools for this recipe

• Square brownie pan, 8 inch / 20 cm for a good thickness
  
• Angled spatula to spread the batter in the pan
• Kitchen scale, to weigh all ingredients correctly
• Whisk, to gently mix the batter.

Ingredients notes

Butter

Use quality unsalted butter with at least 80 percent fat which must be melted before being incorporated into the other ingredients. 

Brown butter blondie tip :

For a brown butter version of blondies, simply brown the butter gently in a pan until golden brown and you can smell that wonderful nutty butter smell and then use it according to the recipe card.

Egg

Use medium to large eggs, especially at room temperature to obtain a homogeneous preparation.

Sugar

A mix of refined granulated sugar and brown sugar that gives this blondies recipe incredible flavor. If you find the recipe too sweet, especially with the white chocolate chips which are already very sweet, feel free to reduce the amount of sugar in this recipe.

Tip: Use whatever brown sugar you have in your cupboards, dark brown sugar or light brown sugar il’s work well.

Flour

I use all-purpose white wheat flour, just measure the quantities well with an electronic scale because flour is a major ingredient in the moist and melting texture of the blondie.

Vanilla extract

Always use a little pure liquid vanilla extract in your sweet recipes, it gives a delicious flavour and brings out all the taste.

Salt

A small pinch of salt or sea salt to bring out all the flavors in your recipes. Salt is a flavor enhancer and you won't feel it in the blondie.

Baking powder

To make the dough rise a little and have more texture in the mouth we add a little baking powder, but this does not take away from its incredible melting.

Chocolate chip

In this recipe I chose white chocolate chips, it adds a richer flavor and a nice dense, fudgy texture with a bit of crunch since they are not completely melted.

But if you find it missing chocolate flavor then simply replace them with semi-sweet chocolate chips and you will have a texture much like chocolate chip cookies.

Toppings

Peanut butter

You can add even more flavor to your blondie with peanut butter or Nutella swirled on top of the dough just before you bake your blondie.

Crunchy

And for extra crunch in your blondies, add walnut, macadamia nuts or a mixture of crushed nuts like almonds and hazelnuts.

Creamy

Serve the brownies on a plate with a creamy topping, such as vanilla or chocolate ice cream or a chocolate glaze.

The only difference between a blondies and a brownies is the cocoa powder.

Indeed, the brownies is prepared with almost the same ingredients as the blondies with the only difference that it contains cocoa powder. The blondies has the same melting texture as its cousin but without the chocolate color.
