FAQs
Can I use white sugar instead of brown sugar?
While you can substitute white sugar, brown sugar provides moisture and a richer flavor that defines blondies. For best results, stick with brown sugar.
How do I know when blondies are done baking?
Blondies are done when the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Overbaking can make them dry.

Ingredients
Blondie Batter Ingredients
- 1 cup (226g) unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups (400g) packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and brown sugar, stirring until smooth and well blended. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract for flavor. Gradually fold in the flour, mixing just until incorporated to avoid overworking the batter.
- Bake the Blondies: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch (23×33 cm) baking pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan and spread it smoothly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, indicating a chewy texture.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the blondies from the oven and allow them to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, cut into squares and serve as a delightful chewy treat.
Notes
- For extra texture and flavor, consider adding 1/2 cup chopped nuts or chocolate chips to the batter.
- Do not overbake to keep the blondies chewy; baking times may vary depending on oven.
- Using brown sugar gives the blondies a deep caramel flavor and chewy texture.
- Store blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
