Sharing our favorite blondie recipe today! My White Chocolate Lemon Poppyseed Blondies are perfect for entertaining!
Blondie Recipe
Lemon poppyseed is one of my favorite combinations. Seems to always be a sweet and delicious cake of some sort. I decided to turn that combination into one delicious blondie if I might say so myself. It’s dense, chewy and lemon poppyseed delicious. Dust with a little powdered sugar and you’ve got yourself a beautiful dessert to serve to family and friends. Enjoy!

How To Make Blondies
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and line an 8×8 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
- Put butter into a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 30-45 seconds until butter is melted and hot. Add 3/4 cup white chips and let sit for 1 minute. Stir until smooth, if needed place back in microwave for an additional 15-30 seconds to melt through.
- Add flour, sugar, chips, baking powder and salt into mixing bowl with melted chocolate. Stir to combine. Stir in eggs and lemon curd and poppyseeds. Stir until well combined. Transfer to prepared baking dish, spreading evenly. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until cooked through. Let cool completely then cut into squares. Serve warm, room temperature or chilled.
Let it sit for a minute or so to melt chips then give a little stir.
Place your flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and 2 eggs. Add poppyseed, lemon curd and more white chips 🙂
Give a nice stir to combine. Transfer to a parchment lined square baking dish.
Spread evenly to corners then time to bake until golden and baked through!
Let your bars cool completely then cut into squares. Dust with a little powdered sugar and voila! Gorgeous and delicious treats. Enjoy!
Tips For Making The BEST Blondies
- Melt butter and add brown sugar while the butter is still warm. Make sure to cool this mixture. Let other ingredients, particularly eggs, come up to room temperature before you add them. You don’t want to add your eggs to hot butter and sugar or you’ll risk scrambling the eggs. Don’t overmix blondies; mix by hand instead of mixer for best results.

I need to try these, but where do you get lemon curd at? I have never heard of that before.
These look fantastic, Jenny! Love all your special treats over here at Picky Palate! xo
SO perfect, and gorgeous to boot!!
These make me happy just looking at them! Yum! A must try for sure! Pinning!
WOW these look soooo lovely!!!
I will have to try them very soon because they’re just what I was looking for. I have never done something with poppyseeds yet and wanted to try and I just happen to have some freshly homemade lemon curd in the fridge!
Thanks for the idea!
I love this idea for blondies!
Love the lemon poppy seed combo! Blondies are a great idea and they look so good!
These are GORGEOUS Jenny! I love white chocolate and anything with poppyseeds – count me in! What a fun recipe. Pinned!
Love, love, love this whole flavour combo, but I never would have thought to make blondies. You’re so creative, Jenny!
Love the combination of Lemon curd and white chocolate! Do you know if doubling the recipe would work well (baking it in a larger pan of course)? I’d love to take a large batch to school before Spring Break! They look so FRESH, my mouth is watering! Thanks!
Oh I DEFINITELY need to make these! I have had lemon on the brain lately!
Just popped a batch in the oven with key lime curd instead of lemon as that was all I had on hand. Can’t wait to try it!
Ooo, let me know how you like it!! I’m obsessed!!
hey, these look amazing!!Is it possible to replace the lemon curd with just zest and juice? …i have no idea where to get lemon curd in germany (or how it’s called..).
Thanks 🙂
Hi Maria, you can certainly try just adding zest and maybe 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice instead of the lemon curd. Let me know how it turns out!
Maria, just make it yourself it is very easy!! I’m from Germany too and just discovered lemon curd last year – it is very unique in flavor and totally worth trying!
You basically just need lemon juice, eggs, butter and sugar. I have a recipe on my blog if you’re looking for one. 🙂
Thank you so much for you both 🙂
Can’t wait to try them out!!
Oh my, two of my favorite things chocolate and lemon!!! I cannot wait to make these. Thanks so much for sharing this with us all.
It’s my pleasure 🙂 Hope you get to try it soon!
White chocolate and lemon, and lemon and poppyseeds, are such good flavor combos! Love that you added them all up in a blondie. Looks like springtime! 🙂
This is such a gorgeous batch of blondies, and I love the lemon-poppy seed flavor! So summery!

I agree perfect for spring! Will it ever get here?
What a fun blondie variety! Can’t beat the refreshing lemon-poppyseed combination.
White chocolate with lemon? They have to be delicious! Fortunately for me I just stocked up on white chocolate.
Have a beautiful Wednesday!
P.S. Love your blog. 🙂
Thanks so much Melanie!! Hope you enjoy my blondies…have a great Wednesday too!
Can the white flour be substituted with another?
I haven’t tried it with another flour, but I think you could substitute white whole wheat flour with no trouble.
These blondes look GREAT! Love the addition of poppy seeds too 🙂
I love the addition of the white chocolate chips in this!
These are to die for Jenny!! I absolutely love this recipe!!
