Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for topping)
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×9 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides for easy removal.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar until fully combined.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. In a small bowl, mix the 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon for the topping.
  7. Spread half of the blondie batter evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar topping over the batter layer.
  8. Dollop the remaining batter over the first layer and gently spread it out. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon-sugar topping over the top.
  9. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with moist crumbs attached.
  10. Let the blondies cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment overhang. Cut into squares.

Notes

  • For the softest, chewiest texture, avoid overbaking. The center should look slightly underdone when you remove the pan from the oven.
  • If you want an extra indulgent treat, drizzle a simple vanilla glaze over the cooled bars before slicing.
  • These buttery dessert squares are excellent for potlucks and parties.
