Good Saturday night everyone. Yowza, how fast does a year go?!! It has been so much fun sharing my recipe creations with all of you who read them! I have learned so much this last year. Thanks for all of you who comment. It really makes my day to read all of your comments!
So, in celebration of my 1 year blogger-versary, I have created the best blondies in town, in my opinion! They were inspired by my visit to Chelsea Market during my recent trip to NY. They had a fab little brownie shop called the Fat Witch where I bought a white chocolate blondie that was heavenly! I quickly got to work in my kitchen and came up with my own version. I was hesitant at first about adding the raspberries, but whoa they are good tucked inside with the white chocolate.
Take a peek and make yourself some blondies!
Since it’s a celebration, seriously add the ice cream!
Raspberry White Chocolate Blondies
¼ Cup butter
¾ Cup white chocolate chips
½ Cup sugar
¼ Cup brown sugar
1 Cup flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ Cup white chocolate chips

2.Pour into an 8×8 inch baking dish lined with foil that’s been sprayed with cooking spray.Top evenly with 1 Cup raspberries.Mix the chopped pecans and sanding sugar in a small bowl until combined then sprinkle over top of blondies.Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until toothpick comes clean from center.
