Chocolate Chip Blondies
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups packed light brown sugar
- 3 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Directions:
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees (F). Butter a 13-by-9-inch baking pan.Dust the pan with flour and tap out the excess.
- In a medium bowl, using a wire whisk, stir together the flour, baking powder and salt. In a large bowl, using a hand-held mixer set a medium speed, beat the butter and brown sugar for 2 to 3 minutes, until the mixture is light in color and texture. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Beat in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla.
- At low speed, beat in the flour mixture in two additions, scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition. Using a wooden spoon, stir in the chocolate chips. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with the rubber spatula.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean but not dry. Do not over bake. (The chocolate chips will sink to the bottom of the blondies as they bake.)
- Cool the blondies completely in the pan set on a wire rack.
