Additions and Variations
Try some of these substitutions or additions to these blondies for added flavor.
- Change the Chocolate Chips – Instead of using white chocolate chips mix in butterscotch chips.
- Nuts – A classic blondie recipe include nuts. Mix in some chopped walnuts or any nuts that you prefer.
- Orange Zest – For an orange flavor, mix in a teaspoon of orange zest.
- Cinnamon – A teaspoon of cinnamon always is a crowd favorite.
- Dried Fruit – We suggest some copped cherries would be a great addition to these blondies.
- Cake Flour – For a cake like blondie, you can use cake flour instead of all purpose flour.
- Caramel Syrup – Drizzle Caramel Syrup over the Blondie dessert.
- Gluten Free – If you want to make these gluten free, use a gluten free flour for a 1 to 1 swap for all-purpose flour.
How to Make Blondies
- Step 1. Prepare Oven and Baking Pan. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9X13 baking pan with nonstick spray or parchment paper. I suggest using a glass pan instead of a metal pan.
Step 2. Beat together the butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl.
Step 3. Mix until well combined.
Step 4. Then add in the eggs and vanilla extract.
Step 5. Mix together until well blended.
Step 6. Get out a separate bowl. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, cornstarch and salt.
Step 7. Next, stir in the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
Step 8. Combine by hand until just combined. Be careful that you do not over mix.
Step 9. Then fold in the white chocolate chips.
Step 10. Mix together by hand using a wooden spoon.
Step 11. Finally, spread the batter into the prepared pan. Try to smooth the batter into an even layer with a rubber spatula.
Step 12. Bake for 25 minutes to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 13. Allow to cool and cut into squares.
Pro Tips
- Parchment Paper – I also like to line a baking dish with parchment paper when I bake. It helps make clean up easy and to easily remove blondies from pan.
- Wire Rack – If you don’t have a wire rack, they are so handy to help cool the blondies completely. If you plan to take these blondies out and then cut them these come in handy. They will get used a lot if you bake.
- Mixing Ingredients – Don’t over mix the batter when combining the ingredients.
- Baking Blondies – When baking the blondies make sure not to overbake. We check the blondies after baking for about 20 minutes to see if done.
- Baking Pan – We used a 9×13 pan for this recipe, but if you want a thicker blondie you can use a 8×8 pan.
- Brown Sugar. We do recommend using dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar for this recipe since brown sugar is the main ingredient.
Storage
After the blondies have cool completely, place in an air tight container at room temperature. They will last about 4 days if stored properly.
You can also freeze them which works great if you want to get started on your holiday baking. Wrap the sliced brownies in a plastic wrap and place in a freezer safe bag. They will last about 3 months in the freezer.
Once you are ready to serve, thaw at room temperature.
What Is The Difference Between a Brownie And a Blondie?
The main difference between a blondie and a Brownie is the cocoa powder. There is no cocoa powder in a blondie. When you make a brownie melted chocolate is added with the ingredients to make a brownie.
In a blondie recipe it is white chocolate chips are added but they are not melted.
We love this blondie recipe. They are different than your traditional brownie recipe. The texture is different and the flavor is too.
Dessert Blondies have a dense and chewy texture. Brownies is cakier and fluffier. This blondie recipe is perfect for your holiday dinners or for a bake sale. If you are hosting a cookie exchange, make this Blondie dessert.

The ingredient list calls for 3 eggs. The directions say to add the eggs, the egg yolk…. So, is it 3 whole eggs plus another yolk or is it 2 whole eggs and just the yolk of the third egg?
Jerri – I’m so sorry for the confusion. We used 3 whole eggs for this recipe. I’ll update the recipe card. Thank you!
We love this recipe!! My husband cannot say enough good things! And won’t stay out of the pan! Thanks for this easy to follow delicious recipe
