Brown Butter Blondies are a family favorite recipe that are an easy to make dessert.

Last week I was in charge of dessert at our Life Group and I knew something chocolaty was in order. I was going to make a batch of Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies, but I wasn't in the mood to scoop cookies so I decided Brown Butter Blondies were it.

Brown Butter Blondies have gone crazy on Pinterest and you can read addition reviews here. 

I love blondies because they are like a brownie but blonde. With the flavor of brown sugar, and vanilla. With a crispy edge, and soft gooey chewy center.

What's not to love?

I actually had to make a second pan of these because we devoured them before I was able to have Colt take a photo.  Let me tell you just how disappointed Colt and the kids were that I had to make a second pan for them to enjoy.

The minute the kids walked through the door they headed straight to the pan of Blondies and started begging for a square.

I also believe Colt may have eaten over half of the blondies out of the center before taking a picture because somehow only 3 center bars remained...

I'm still trying to figure that one out.

Butter a 9"x13" pan, lining it with parchment paper and butter the parchment paper makes these super easy to remove when baked.

If you don't have parchment paper just butter your pan well.

In a small skillet brown 1 cup of Butter, swirling pan as needed to promote even browning. 

Add browed butter to mixing bowl, and add remaining 1/4 cup Cold Butter. 

Mix on low speed until butter is melted.

Add:

• 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
• 1 1/4 cup Brown Sugar
• 1 tablespoon Vanilla
• 3/4 teaspoon Salt

Using a whisk attachment beat mixture until sugar is dissolved.

Note: I made this recipe with both a beater, and a whisk attachment. I found the whisk attachment left the blondies with a better texture.

Beat 2 whole Eggs and 2 Egg Yolks together. 

Add egg mixture to butter/sugar mixture and beat on high speed for 30 seconds. 

Allow mixture to rest for 3 minutes.

Repeat mixing for 30 seconds and resting for 3 minutes, until batter become thick and yellow.

Add 3/4 teaspoons Baking Soda, and beat on high speed another 30 seconds. 

Allow mixture to rest 3 minutes.

On low mix in 2 3/4 cups all-purpose or whole wheat pastry flour until combined. 

Add chocolate chips and stir until well incorporated.

Spread evenly in prepared baking pan.

Bake in a 350 degree oven for 27-30 minutes, or until lightly brown on the edges but still a little loose in the middle.

Remove Brown Butter Blondies from pan, and slice into desired serving sizes.

These are great with a glass of milk or a large scoop of ice cream.

Oh my gosh is it bad I'm already ready to make a 3rd pan of these Brown Butter Blondies?

Enjoy guys!
