Gingerbread Blondies

Brooke Homec
These gingerbread blondies are chewy and sweet bars that have a bit of spice coming through. They're quick and easy, only one bowl needed and can be done in thirty minutes!

Ingredients
 

  • ½ cup (113.5 g) salted butter melted and cooled
  • ¾ cup (165 g) brown sugar
  • 1 large egg room temp
  • 1 egg yolk room temp
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla
  • tablespoon (1.5 tablespoon) molasses
  • ½ teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) salt
  • ½ teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) baking powder
  • teaspoon (1.5 teaspoon) powdered ginger
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) cloves
  • ¼ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • cups (175 g) all-purpose flour
  • cup (120 g) white chocolate chips
  • cinnamon and sugar for topping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 F, and line a 8x8 baking pan with cooking spray and parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together butter and brown sugar until combined. Add egg, yolk, vanilla and molasses and mix until combined.
  • Stir in salt, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, cornstarch and flour. Fold in white chocolate chips.
  • Smooth batter into prepared pan and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.
  • Bake for 20-24 minutes, or until golden brown along the edges. Allow them to cool before serving.

Notes

Make sure not to over bake these. You want to take them out right when the edges start to turn a golden brown. They will continue to cook while they cool.
These are also good with chocolate chips.
I have given both cups and grams as measurements. Grams will be more precise, especially when measuring flour. If you don’t have a kitchen scale, no problem! Just lightly spoon flour into your measuring cup to insure its not packed in there. Light and fluffy is the key.
