Ingredients
Scale
Blondie Batter
- 1 cup Unsalted Butter (softened)
- 1 cup Brown Sugar (do not substitute with white sugar)
- 2 large Eggs (room temperature)
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour (sifted)
- 1 cup Mint Chocolate Chips (or substitute with regular chocolate chips)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the blondies.
- Prepare Baking Dish: Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal.
- Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, which helps create a tender texture.
- Add Eggs: Beat in the eggs one at a time until the batter becomes smooth and well combined.
- Add Flour: Gradually add the sifted all-purpose flour into the batter, mixing until just combined to avoid overworking the dough.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the mint chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Transfer and Smooth: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top with a spatula for even baking.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool Slightly: Allow the blondies to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes to set.
- Slice and Serve: Once completely cool, transfer the blondies to a wire rack if desired, then slice into 12 squares and serve.
Notes
- For best results, use room temperature eggs to ensure better mixing.
- Do not substitute brown sugar with white sugar as it changes the flavor and texture.
- Ensure not to overbake to keep the blondies moist and chewy.
- Mint chocolate chips can be replaced with regular chocolate chips if preferred.
- Use parchment paper for easier removal and cleanup.
