Chewy Homemade Blondies
These thick and chewy blondies are a wonderful buttery treat that hits the spot every time.
recipesbynani.comThere is something so comforting about a warm blondie fresh out of the oven. They are basically the brown sugar version of a brownie, and they are incredibly simple to put together when you need a quick dessert for the family.
I love that this base recipe is a blank canvas. You can toss in chocolate chips, walnuts, or even colorful candies depending on what you have in your pantry. Just make sure you do not overbake them so they stay nice and fudgy in the center.
🧺 Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg

💡 Tips
