Description
These Decadent Peanut Butter Blondies feature irresistible flavors with creamy peanut butter, butterscotch, and white chocolate chips, making them a quick and satisfying treat for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup salted butter melted and slightly cooled
- ⅔ cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 ⅓ cups packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour spooned and leveled
- ¾ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ cup butterscotch chips
- ½ cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and prepare an 8-inch square pan by greasing or lining it with parchment paper, allowing the edges to hang over for easy lifting.
- In a bowl, whisk together flour and baking powder to ensure the blondies remain soft and chewy.
- In another bowl, combine melted butter, brown sugar, and creamy peanut butter until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is well mixed before adding the next, then fold in the vanilla extract.
- Gently incorporate the dry ingredients into the peanut butter mixture until just combined to keep the batter soft and slightly thick.
- Stir in the white chocolate and butterscotch chips, adding a handful to the top for extra melty goodness if desired.
- Spread the batter in the prepared pan and bake for about 35 to 38 minutes.
- Check for doneness with a toothpick; moist crumbs indicate they are ready with golden edges and a tender middle.
- Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan before lifting out with the parchment and slicing into squares.
Notes
For chewier blondies, do not overmix the batter when combining the dry ingredients.
Let the blondies cool completely to maintain their shape while slicing.
Sprinkling extra chips on top ensures added flavor in every bite.
