how to make White Chocolate Blondies

Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
• 1 1/2 – 2 cups white chocolate chips
• 2 whole eggs

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a 9×9 inch or 8×8 inch square pan with parchment paper. Leave a little overhang to easily lift the bars out later.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set this bowl aside.
3. In a large bowl, beat together the softened butter and both sugars using an electric mixer or a stand mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy—about 2-3 minutes.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, stir in the vanilla and almond extracts until everything is combined. Don’t forget to scrape down the sides of the bowl.
5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture in two increments, stirring until a thick batter forms. Once mixed, gently fold in the white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
6. Spread the blondie batter into the prepared pan using a rubber spatula or spoon. If you like, sprinkle more white chocolate chips on top.
7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is a light golden brown. You can check by inserting a toothpick into the middle; it should come out clean.
8. Let the blondies cool for a bit, then pull them out of the pan using the parchment paper. Transfer them to a wire rack and cut into 16 squares. Enjoy!
