Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 175g butter, cut into cubes, plus extra for the tin
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract or bean paste

Dry Ingredients

  • 200g light brown soft sugar
  • 100g caster sugar
  • 200g plain flour
  • ½ tsp baking powder

Add-ins

  • 200g white chocolate, chopped, or use white chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Melt butter and sugars: In a pan over low heat, melt the 175g butter with both sugars (200g light brown soft sugar and 100g caster sugar). Add a pinch of salt if using unsalted butter. Remove from heat and let cool for 10 minutes to prevent curdling when eggs are added.
  2. Prepare the baking tin and oven: Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan) or Gas Mark 4. Butter a 23cm square or 25x20cm baking tin and line it with baking parchment.
  3. Combine eggs and vanilla: Beat the 3 eggs and 1 tsp vanilla extract into the cooled butter and sugar mixture until well combined.
  4. Add dry ingredients: Sift in 200g plain flour and ½ tsp baking powder, then gently fold the mixture until a smooth batter forms.
  5. Fold in chocolate: Carefully fold 200g chopped white chocolate or white chocolate chips into the batter evenly.
  6. Bake the blondies: Pour and scrape the batter into the prepared tin, smoothing out the top. Bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes until the edges pull away from the tin, the top has a slight papery crust, and a skewer inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs but no wet batter.
  7. Cool: Let the blondies cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool fully. The texture will firm up as they cool.
  8. Storage: Keep the blondies in an airtight container for up to three days for best freshness.

Notes

  • Use a metal skewer or toothpick to test for doneness; it should come out with moist crumbs, not wet batter.
  • Add a pinch of salt when melting butter if using unsalted butter for balanced flavor.
  • Ensure the butter and sugar mixture is cooled before adding eggs to avoid curdling.
  • You can substitute white chocolate chunks with chips or finely chopped pieces.
  • Store blondies at room temperature in an airtight container to keep them soft and fresh.
