Note From Sabrina

Cover the mixing bowl with a kitchen towel and turn it on low speed so that the flour mixture doesn’t get everywhere. Mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix so your blondies don’t come out tough and dense.

About this Recipe

This Blondie recipe is one you’ll find yourself making again and again. The ingredients are all pantry staples, so you don’t have to run out to the store to buy anything fancy. Just combine the simple ingredients into an easy batter and bake for 30 minutes. It’s the perfect dessert if you need to bake something at the last minute. 

How to Store

  • Serve: Let the Chocolate Chip Blondies cool before you slice them into squares and serve. They’ll stay good covered at room temperature for up to 2 days. 
  • Store: To keep the blondie recipe longer, cover the pan in aluminum foil, or transfer the blondies to an airtight container to store in the fridge. They’ll stay good for up to 1 week. 
  • Freeze: You can also seal and freeze the blondies. They’ll stay good frozen for 3 months. Let them thaw in the fridge, and eat them cold or reheat them in the oven. 

Ideas to Serve

For an extra-special dessert, you can serve a warm Chocolate Chip Blondie with a scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream over the top. Then add your favorite toppings like Fudge Sauce, sprinkles, or caramel sauce. It’s an indulgent dessert and a fun twist on brownies ala mode. 

Variations

  • Chocolate chips: You can try out different kinds of chocolate in the recipe instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips. Try out using milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or white chocolate chips. You can also exchange chocolate chips for larger chocolate chunks. Or, change up the flavor more using butterscotch chips, toffee, or peanut butter chips. 
  • Chocolate Chip Pecan Blondies: For some extra crunch mix in chopped pecans at the same time you add the chocolate chips. You could also try other nuts like walnuts, almonds, macadamia nuts, or peanuts. 
  • Oatmeal Blondies: To add in some extra chewy texture and fiber to the Chocolate Chip Blondies mix 1 cup of old-fashioned oats into the batter. 
  • Add-ins: For more mix-ins try broken pretzels, shredded coconut, raisins, or M&Ms. You can also add a little salt over the top using sea salt or large-grained kosher salt.
