- 1/2 teaspoon salt

How to Make Chocolate Chip Blondies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove it from the heat and stir in the brown sugar until well combined.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, stirring until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the blondies to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into squares and enjoy!
Tips for the Best Results
- Make sure not to overmix the batter after adding the flour to keep the blondies chewy.
- Let the blondies cool completely for cleaner cuts and better texture.
- For a richer flavor, use dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar.
Easy Variations
- Add a cup of chopped nuts, such as walnuts or pecans, for extra crunch.
- Substitute half of the chocolate chips with white chocolate chips for a sweeter twist.
- Mix in some shredded coconut for a tropical flair.
What to Serve With It
- A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delicious sundae.
- Fresh berries or a fruit compote for a refreshing contrast.
- A drizzle of caramel or chocolate sauce for extra indulgence.
