Best Blondie Recipe

A blondie is a popular baked dessert bar that is similar in texture to a brownie but is made without cocoa or chocolate. Instead of the chocolate flavor that characterizes brownies, blondies often have a rich, buttery flavor with hints of vanilla or caramel. The texture of a blondie can range from fudgy to cake-like, depending on the recipe and the ratio of ingredients used.

Blondies include flour, brown sugar, butter, eggs, baking powder, and vanilla. Because of their simple base, blondies are versatile and can be adapted to include a variety of flavors and ingredients.

Blondies are easy to make, and they are perfect for sharing at gatherings or enjoying as a sweet treat with a cup of coffee or tea.
