Blondies- An Applebee's Copycat Recipe image

A friend of mine who used to work at Applebee's gave me 2 recipes that are close to a couple of my favorite dishes from that restaurant.

Number Of Ingredients 16

BLONDIES:
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp baking soda
1/8 tsp salt
1 c all purpose flour
1/4 c chopped walnuts, optional
1 c brown sugar, firmly packed
5 Tbsp butter, melted
1 large egg, beaten
1 Tbsp good vanilla extract
1/2 c white chocolate chips
MAPLE SAUCE:
3/4 c real maple syrup, not imitation
1 stick butter
3/4 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4 c chopped walnuts, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Stir together baking powder, soda, salt, and flour. Sift dry ingredients into a medium bowl, stir in 1/4 cup nuts and set aside. In another, larger, bowl mix 1 cup brown sugar and 5 tablespoons melted butter. Combine well. Add eggs and vanilla and mix well, again. Stir flour mixture into butter/brown sugar mixture, a little at a time. When well mixed stir in white chocolate chips.
  • 2. Spread batter evenly in a non-stick 9 inch square pan. This will be a small amount of dough. The pan will not be as full as it would be for typical brownies. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until blondies pass the toothpick test. Remove from oven.
  • 3. SAUCE: Heat maple syrup in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in remaining butter and cook at a simmer until butter is melted. Stir in ermaining brown sugar and cook, stirring, until brown sugar has dissolved completely and sauce is hot. If you desire you can add 1/4 cup chopped nuts. Serve by placing warm blondie on plate, top with ice cream, and pour sauce over all.
