What You’ll Need

• All-Purpose Flour- Flour is the main dry ingredient in the blondies.
• Granulated Sugar– This fine white sugar adds to the sweetness to the blondies.
• Baking Powder– Baking powder help the blondies rise during baking.
• Salt– I use kosher salt for my cooking and baking.
• Large Eggs– For consistency, I use large eggs for my cooking and baking.
• Lemon Curd– Find lemon curd in the jams and jellies section of the grocery store.
• Poppyseeds– Find poppyseeds in the spices section of the grocery store.
• Powdered Sugar– I like to dust the tops of my blondies with powdered sugar.

How To Make Blondies

Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Dish. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and line an 8×8 inch baking dish with parchment paper.

Melt Butter. Put butter into a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 30-45 seconds until butter is melted and hot.

Add White Chocolate Chips To Melted Butter. 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.

Dry Ingredients. Add flour, sugar, chips, baking powder and salt into mixing bowl with melted chocolate. Stir to combine.

Add Eggs, Lemon Curd and Poppyseed. Stir in eggs and lemon curd and poppyseeds. Stir until well combined.

Transfer Batter To Baking Dish. Transfer to prepared baking dish, spreading evenly.

Bake. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until cooked through. Let cool completely then cut into squares. Serve warm, room temperature or chilled.

Dust With Powdered Sugar and Serve. 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.

How To Serve
