Fan Fave Blondies

Making blondies always makes me chuckle a bit. They're a fan favorite and yet the easiest bar in the book. Making the batter takes 10 minutes, and then they bake for about 25. So if you have less than an hour before you need to be wherever you said you'd bring a treat, just whip up these instead of rushing to the store for a pre-packaged dessert.

INGREDIENTS:

1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) butter
2 cups brown sugar
2 eggs
Generous teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup chocolate chips

INSTRUCTIONS:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Spray a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.

In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the butter and the brown sugar, stirring constantly. Once fully melted, remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.

Add eggs one at a time and then vanilla. Stir to combine.

Add baking powder, baking soda, and flour. Stir until completely combined.

Spread batter into baking pan. Sprinkle chocolate chips across batter.

DETAILS:
Super fast prep + less than 30-minute bake time. Yields enough for a crowd.
