Dreamy White Chocolate Blondies

Category: Sweet Treats Everyone Will Love

White Chocolate Blondies deliver a rich, buttery twist on regular brownies. Brown sugar adds depth, creating a soft, moist sweetness. With just the right balance of flour and melted butter, you get a dense, fudgy center that’s not cake-like. Bits of white chocolate scattered throughout add bursts of creaminess. To get that shiny, crackly top and perfect texture, mix carefully and bake just right. Cooling completely is key, and a sprinkle of sea salt can add a gourmet feel to elevate the sweetness.

Temperature Considerations

Temperature control significantly impacts the final texture. Cool melted butter completely before mixing with sugar, and maintain steady oven temperature throughout baking. Room temperature eggs blend more smoothly into the batter.

Advance Preparation

These blondies taste even better the next day as flavors deepen. For events, prepare a day ahead and store properly between parchment layers in an airtight container.

Storage Instructions

Store at room temperature in airtight containers using parchment between layers. For extended storage, wrap individual pieces and freeze. Thaw as needed while maintaining freshness.

Serving Ideas

Enjoy these blondies at room temperature or slightly warmed with vanilla ice cream. Create elegant dessert platters by combining with other baked treats.

Recipe Variations

The basic recipe welcomes additions like chopped nuts, butterscotch chips, or a dark chocolate drizzle for special occasions.

Problem Solving

Use foil tenting if edges brown too quickly. Remember that centers continue firming while cooling. Complete cooling ensures clean cuts.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Recipe

→ Why is using melted butter important?
Melted butter gives a soft, chewy texture, but letting it cool first avoids cooking your eggs.
→ Can I swap in other types of chocolate chips?
Sure! Dark, milk, or even butterscotch chips are great substitutes for white chocolate.
→ Why wait for the blondies to cool before cutting?
They need time to firm up and get their chewy texture. Cutting too early can make them break apart.
→ What creates the shiny, crackly top layer?
That glossy surface happens when sugar rises during baking, just like in brownies.
→ Can this recipe be doubled?
Yes! Use a 9x13 pan and add 5–10 extra minutes to the baking time.

What You’ll Need

→ Base

01 Melted butter, 225g or 1 cup (make sure it’s cooled down)
02 Brown sugar or demerara sugar, 340g or 1¾ cups (light is better)
03 Two eggs
04 All-purpose or plain flour, 285g or 2 cups

→ Mix-ins

05 White chocolate chips, 100g or ½ cup

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 01

Set the oven to 180°C/356°F and line a 9-inch square pan with parchment paper.

Step 02

Whisk the sugar and eggs together in a medium-sized bowl until well blended.

Step 03

Slowly pour in the cooled melted butter while stirring the egg mixture.

Step 04

Stir in the flour until it’s fully mixed in. The batter will get super thick.

Step 05

Fold in the white chocolate chips, making sure they’re spread out evenly.

Step 06

Pour the batter into your prepared pan, smooth the surface, and if you want, sprinkle some sea salt on top. Bake for 25 minutes until the edges are firm, and the top is golden.

Step 07

Leave it to cool completely in the tin before lifting it out and slicing it into 9 pieces.

Additional Notes

  1. If you use an 8-inch pan, the blondies will be thicker and need extra time to bake.
  2. Don’t overmix the flour, or the blondies might turn dense.
  3. The batter will feel thick, and that’s okay—that’s what gives the final treat its chewiness.
  4. Make sure the blondies are totally cool before cutting. It’s worth the wait!
