Caramel Blondies

Crisp & crunchy caramel top coating
Would anybody like some Caramel Blondies? I know my fellow work peops will appreciate 'em! :)


Caramel Blondies
  • 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup milk chocolate chips
  • 3/4 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup caramel sauce
Yumtastic middle
Preheat oven to 350°.

Butter and line a 9x9" baking pan with parchment paper. Butter the parchment paper too. Combine the flour, baking powder & salt in a medium bowl.

Melt the butter; add brown sugars & combine until sugar is melted in. Let the mix cool. Then whisk in the eggs & vanilla until combined. Blend in the flour mixture just until it's combined. Fold in the chips.

Scoop the batter into the prepped pan. Flatten/even out the top, then drizzle the caramel all over the batter. Take a spatula & lightly swirl the caramel into the top. 

Bake for about 25-30 minutes (until a toothpick comes out clean).

Makes 16.

Lishie-tip- Leave about a TBsp of the flour mixture in it's original bowl & mix in the chips with it. This little bit of flour will help the chips not settle into the bottom of the pan.

Also- I mix everything in a batter bowl then pour it into the prepped pan, instead of scooping!

Enjoy!!!

Confetti Blondies! (M&Ms)

The M & Ms melt for a rainbow confetti look!
I think my most asked for baked good to make is my blondies. Once someone gets a taste, they want them again. So when I asked Jeanie at work what she'd like for her birthday, she said, "I really like your blondies!" Easily done. I love making them & I love doing things differently every time. So for a birthday blondie, how about some confetti? These are a cinch to do- just add M & Ms! They add the color & the milk chocolate. Plus bright colors = happiness to me! Happy birthday, Jeanie!

Fun HIDING inside! Shhhhh

Blondies!

So I also baked blondies this past weekend... They really are delish & so versatile. My recipe is fairly easy to remember too because of the measurements. 3/4 is a rule for my blondies- you can sub ANY kind of chips (milk, white, semi-sweet chocolate, butterscotch, etc.) or crushed nuts (walnut, peanut, etc.) or even dried fruit (coconut, cranberries, etc.) The following is just the DeMaria household's favorite mix...
