Blondes have more fun…

Happy National Blonde Brownie Day!!  I am always looking for ways to celebrate something, as our founder Jeanne Bice always said—”Life’s A Party, Celebrate EVERYDAY”!!!  So, when I found out that there was a blonde brownie day—I just had to pull out my Kitchen Aid & get baking!!

I found this recipe on Pinterest, and Glen gave it TWO big thumbs up, so I wanted to share it with you.  Thank you to- Spaceships & Laser Beams for this recipe.

Ingredients:

• 8 tablespoons 1 stick unsalted butter, melted, plus more for pan
• 1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
• 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 1 large egg room temperature
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush an 8-inch square baking pan with melted butter; line pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides. Also, butter paper.

2. In a large bowl, whisk butter and sugars until smooth. Whisk in egg and vanilla until fully incorporated.

3. Add flour and salt; mix just until moistened (do not over mix). Fold in 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips.

4. Transfer batter to prepared pan; pour and smooth top. Sprinkle with remaining chocolate chips.

5. Bake until top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes.

6. Set pan on a wire rack and let cool completely. Using parchment overhang, lift cake from pan and transfer to a cutting board; cut into 16 squares.

This recipe was very easy and they were very dense.  I believe because there is not levening agent in this recipe.  But it is decadent & delicious!!  Great with a glass of milk too.

Have a wonderful weekend!!
