These delicious Blondies are thick, chewy, and made with three types of baking chips, including chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, and butterscotch chips.

My kids love helping me make. quick treat on the weekends and Blondies are always a favorite at our house. I usually have the ingredients I need and they’re faster to make then cookies (no rolling dough balls or cooking multiple batches).

What are Blondies?

They are a mix between a brownie (without the chocolate) and a chocolate chip cookie bar.  They are heavenly, and I love them so much I also made a Butterscotch blondie recipe that is to die for. If you’re looking for a traditional blondie recipe, this is the recipe for you!

How to make Blondies:

Combine melted butter and brown sugar. Add eggs and vanilla.

Mix dry ingredients. Flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add wet ingredients and stir.

Add baking chips. Press dough into greased 9×13 inch pan. 

Chocolate chips added to blondie dough, then the dough pressed into a 9x13 inch pan.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 25-28 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Baked blondies cut into squares.

Storage and Freezing Instructions:

To Store: Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days. I think blondies taste best the day they are made, but if you want to make them ahead of time I suggest freezing them.

To Freeze: Allow blondie brownies to cool completely.  Cut them and store them in a freezer safe container for up to 3 months.

Recipe Variations:

  • Chocolate Chips: I like using three different types of chips, but you can use your favorite or leave them out! The base is a delicious and chewy cookie bar!
  • Chopped Nuts: Try throwing in some chopped walnuts.
  • Peanut Butter Blondies: Add some Reese’s pieces or peanut butter chips to the batter!

    LADY!!!! These were unbelievably good! I don’t like a lot of sweets, but with the butterscotch and the salt they had the perfect balance. I had to send the rest of the bars to work with my husband because I could not control myself. Bravo on this one 👏
    *plus extra bonus super easy and made in one bowl!!!

    So easy to make. I did delay after mixing everything together and the batter grew quite firm. I scooped it into my pan and spread it evenly. In spite of myself it turned out great. Definitely will be making these again.
