Blondies are wonderful to make around the holidays because they come together quickly and one tray results in a whole batch of treats. Not to mention, these blondies are loaded with festive flavor, thanks to the toasted pecans, white chocolate chips and dried cranberries studded throughout. The drizzle of sweet butterscotch sauce and pinch of flaky sea salt makes for a winning salty-sweet combination.

Time 1h30m

Yield 9 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces
3/4 cup all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup packed light or dark brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup pecans, toasted and chopped
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
1/2 cup dried cranberries
Butterscotch sauce, for drizzling
Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling, optional

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Add 2 rectangular sheets of parchment to an 8-inch square baking pan in a crisscross fashion, leaving a 1-inch overhang on all sides once fitted in the pan. Set aside.
  • Cook the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Swirl as the butter melts so that it browns evenly. It will foam, then turn golden and finally turn a toasty brown, about 6 minutes. Once the aroma is nutty, remove it from the heat and pour into a large heatproof glass bowl. (You should have about 6 tablespoons of browned butter.)
  • Whisk to combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Whisk the brown sugar into the browned butter until combined. Whisk in the egg and vanilla extract. Use a wooden spoon or rubber spatula to fold in the flour mixture until just combined. Then fold in the pecans, white chocolate chips and dried cranberries.
  • Spread the batter into the prepared pan in an even layer. Bake until set and firm when touched and the top is glossy and crackled, 20 to 24 minutes. Let cool to room temperature on a wire rack.
  • Lift the blondie out of the pan using the parchment handles and cut into 9 squares. Drizzle lightly with butterscotch sauce and sprinkle with flaky sea salt, if using. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.

BUTTERSCOTCH BLONDIES

These rich, chewy bars get their deep caramel flavor from a combination of brown butter, dark brown sugar and an optional sprinkle of flaky salt on top. They're delicious as is, but feel free to add some mix-ins (see note), if that's more your style. You'll want to keep the amount of extra ingredients, like nuts, chocolate and dried fruits, to 2 cups total, since blondies with a lot of mix-ins may take a few minutes longer to bake. For an especially delicious combination, try a mix of 1 cup chopped bittersweet chocolate or chips, 1/2 cup toasted walnuts and 1/2 cup chopped pitted dates.

Time 40m

Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup/227 grams unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the pan
1 1/2 cups/330 grams dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large eggs
1 3/4 cups/224 grams all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Any mix-ins you like (see note)
1/4 teaspoon flaky salt (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees and butter and line a 9-by-9-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
  • Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook butter, occasionally scraping the bottom and sides of the pan with a rubber spatula, until it turns deep golden brown and smells nutty. Don't walk away from the pan during this process. The butter can go from brown and nutty to acrid and burnt in mere moments. Transfer the butter and all the brown bits from the pan to a large heat-safe bowl to cool slightly.
  • When the butter is cool (but still melted), add sugar, vanilla extract and salt. Whisk until smooth. Add the eggs and mix until well combined.
  • Fold in the flour and baking powder along with any mix-ins until well combined and no streaks of flour remain in the batter.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan, smooth the top, and sprinkle with flaky salt, if desired. Bake the blondies until set and slightly puffy, 20 to 27 minutes. For gooey blondies, err on the short side of the baking time. Cool before slicing.

BUTTERSCOTCH BLONDIES WITH MACADAMIA NUTS AND CHOCOLATE



Butterscotch Blondies with Macadamia Nuts and Chocolate image

The blondie is the lazy man's chocolate chip cookie. It's basically the same dough, but instead of scooping and baking, it's patted into a baking pan and baked in one go. This recipe simplifies things even further. Instead of creaming room-temperature butter to make the batter, the butter is melted and browned on the stovetop. Then all the other ingredients are mixed into the pot. One pot. One batch. One delicious dessert with plenty of time for relaxing.

Time 1h35m

Yield 16 blondies

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup macadamia nuts, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on 2 sides.
  • In a medium saucepan, heat the butter over medium-high heat until melted. Continue to cook the butter, swirling the pan often, until the milk solids turn golden brown and the butter smells nutty, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and let it cool for a few minutes. (You don't want the egg to scramble when you stir it in.) Stir in the brown sugar until smooth. Then stir in the egg and the vanilla extract. Stir in the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Then add half of the chocolate and half of the macadamia nuts. The batter will be thick.
  • Tip the mixture out into the prepared pan. Use an offset spatula to smooth the dough to an even thickness. Sprinkle with the remaining chocolate and macadamia nuts. Bake until the dough is puffed and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool on a rack. Using the parchment, lift the bar out of the pan and onto a cutting board. Cut into pieces and serve.
