BUTTER-PECAN BLONDIES



Butter-Pecan Blondies image

Blondies prove that pantry staples like flour, brown sugar, butter, and eggs can be spun into pure gold-and without a mixer, at that. Amp up their flavor with a touch of dark rum and a tumble of toasted pecans, and a new favorite is born.

Time 45m

Yield Makes 24 bars

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cups whole pecans
2 sticks unsalted butter, melted, plus more for brushing
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 cups light-brown sugar, plus 2 tablespoons for sprinkling
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon dark rum (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread pecans on a rimmed baking sheet; toast until fragrant, 6 to 7 minutes. Let cool, then chop.
  • Brush a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with butter, then dust with flour, tapping out excess. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour and salt. In a large bowl, whisk together butter and 2 cups brown sugar until combined. Add eggs; whisk until combined. Add vanilla and rum. Fold in flour mixture with a spatula until just combined (do not overmix). Fold in half of nuts.
  • Transfer batter to prepared dish; smooth top with an offset spatula. Sprinkle top with remaining nuts and 2 tablespoons brown sugar. Bake until golden around edges and a tester inserted in center comes out with very few crumbs, 22 to 24 minutes.
  • Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely before cutting into squares. Blondies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients to ensure the best flavor. This means using real butter, brown sugar, and vanilla extract.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough, dense blondies. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Do not overbake the blondies. They should be slightly gooey in the center. An inserted toothpick should come out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Allow the blondies to cool completely before cutting them. This will help them hold their shape and prevent them from crumbling.
  • Store the blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
