Ingredients
Wet Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
Add-ins
- ½ cup white chocolate chips
- ½ cup fresh blueberries, washed and dried
Instructions
- Melt Butter and Combine with White Chocolate: Melt the unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Transfer it immediately over white chocolate chips placed in a bowl and let sit for 5 minutes. Whisk together until smooth then allow the mixture to cool and thicken for about 30 minutes.
- Prepare Baking Pan and Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and position the oven rack in the center. Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- Mix Sugar and Butter-Chocolate Base: In a separate bowl, whisk together the cooled butter and white chocolate mixture with the granulated sugar until the sugar begins to dissolve and mix is uniform.
- Add Vanilla and Eggs: Stir in the vanilla extract, then add the eggs one at a time, whisking until the batter is smooth and fully incorporated.
- Fold in Dry Ingredients: Add the all-purpose flour and salt. Fold gently using a silicone spatula just until the batter comes together; avoid overmixing to keep the blondies tender.
- Add Blueberries and Prepare for Baking: Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries, distributing them evenly without breaking the fruit. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread into an even layer.
- Bake the Blondies: Bake for 35 to 45 minutes until the edges and top are caramelized and golden brown. Test doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out with few moist crumbs or clean.
- Cool and Serve: Let the blondies cool completely in the pan to room temperature. Remove from the pan using the parchment paper and cut into 12 to 16 squares before serving.
Notes
- Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- Refrigerate for up to 10 days to maintain freshness.
- Freeze wrapped in plastic wrap and an airtight container for up to 3 months. Thaw before serving.
- Do not overmix the batter once flour and blueberries are added to keep the texture light and tender.
- Ensure blueberries are dry before adding to the batter to prevent sogginess.
