Ingredients
Scale
Blondie Batter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
Cinnamon-Sugar Topping
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking pan to ensure the blondies don’t stick.
- Mix Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and 1 cup granulated sugar until smooth and well combined. This creates the base for your blondie batter.
- Add Eggs and Vanilla: Add the eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, whisking thoroughly after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract for enhanced flavor.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: Fold in the baking powder and salt, followed by gently adding the flour little by little. Stir just until you have a smooth, light batter to avoid overmixing.
- Prepare Cinnamon-Sugar Mix: In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon—this will create the signature snickerdoodle swirl.
- Layer Batter and Topping: Spread half of the blondie batter evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over it.
- Add Remaining Batter and Swirl: Spread the remaining batter over the cinnamon-sugar layer, then sprinkle the rest of the cinnamon-sugar on top. Use a knife to swirl the topping gently into the batter to create a beautiful cinnamon swirl pattern.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Let the blondies cool completely on a wire rack before cutting into 16 squares to maintain their structure and texture.
Notes
- For an extra gooey texture, slightly underbake the blondies by reducing baking time by 2-3 minutes.
- Ensure melted butter is cooled to avoid cooking the eggs when combined.
- You can add a pinch of nutmeg to the cinnamon-sugar mix for extra warmth and flavor.
- Store blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
- Use a sharp knife dipped in hot water for cleaner cuts.
