Ingredients
- Unsalted Butter (150g, melted) – Adds richness and moisture.
- Light Brown Sugar (200g) – Provides a caramel-like flavor.
- Eggs (2 large, at room temperature) – Helps bind the ingredients.
- Vanilla Extract (1 tbsp) – Enhances flavor.
- Plain Flour (200g) – The base of the blondie batter.
- Baking Powder (1 tsp) – Helps with a slight rise.
- Salt (½ tsp) – Balances the sweetness.
- White Chocolate Chips (100g, optional) – Adds creamy sweetness.
- Chopped Nuts (50g, optional) – For crunch and flavor.
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the oven
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking tin with parchment paper.
Step 2: Mix the wet ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and brown sugar until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until well combined.
Step 3: Combine the dry ingredients
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold this mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Step 4: Add mix-ins (optional)
Gently fold in the white chocolate chips and chopped nuts if using.
Step 5: Bake the blondie cake
Pour the batter into the lined baking tin and spread it evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Step 6: Cool and slice
Let the blondie cake cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Once completely cool, slice into squares and serve.
