Ingredients:
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 1 ½ cups packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup white chocolate chunks or chips
- ¾ cup fresh raspberries
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- Mix the wet ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and brown sugar until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until fully incorporated.
- Combine the dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Fold in the chocolate: Gently fold in the white chocolate chunks or chips.
- Add the raspberries: Carefully fold the raspberries into the batter, being cautious not to crush them too much.
- Bake the blondies: Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool and slice: Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment paper. Slice into squares and serve.
Tips:
- For an extra decorative touch, drizzle melted white chocolate over the blondies before serving.
- These can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, refrigerate for up to a week.
Enjoy the sweet harmony of tart raspberries and luscious white chocolate in every decadent bite!
