Substitutions and Additions
WHITE CHOCOLATE CHIPS: If you prefer a darker chocolate flavor, substitute semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips for white chocolate chips in this delicious white chocolate blondie recipe.
RASPBERRIES: Feel free to experiment with other berries like blueberries, strawberries, or blackberries to create different flavor combinations.
VANILLA EXTRACT: Consider using almond extract for a subtle nutty flavor twist.
NUTS: Add chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans for a delightful crunch.
How To Make This White Chocolate And Raspberry Blondies Recipe
Creating these white chocolate raspberry blondies is a simple process. Let’s break down the steps:
STEP ONE: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8×8 inch metal baking pan with parchment paper and spray with baker’s spray.
Be sure to allow the parchment paper to overhang two of the sides to make it easy to lift the blondies out of the pan once cooled.
STEP TWO: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fully combined.
STEP THREE: Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix again until the egg has been fully incorporated into the butter mixture.
STEP FOUR: Add all-purpose flour and salt to the wet ingredients. Whisk until the flour has been fully incorporated and the batter is thick and smooth.
STEP FIVE: Fold the white chocolate chips into the batter using a rubber spatula until they are evenly incorporated.
Add the fresh raspberries into the blondie batter and gently fold them in just until they are lightly mixed in.
You do not want to overmix at this point because you want to keep your berries from breaking apart too much.
STEP SIX: Spread the batter into an even layer in the prepared baking pan.
Bake for 25-28 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
OUR RECIPE DEVELOPER SAYS
Oven temperatures vary and may need to be recalibrated periodically to ensure they are accurate. Make sure to keep a close eye on your blondies as the suggested baking time approaches.
STEP SEVEN: Allow these blondies to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out of the pan, using the overhanging parchment paper.
Place them onto a cutting board to add the white chocolate drizzle.
STEP EIGHT: To make the white chocolate drizzle, melt the chopped white chocolate bar in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between intervals, until fully melted and smooth.
You can also follow the package instructions for the brand of white chocolate baking bar you are using.
Once melted and smooth, use a spoon to drizzle the melted white chocolate over the top of the blondies in a decorative pattern.
PRO TIP:
You can place your cooled blondies onto a wire rack that is sitting inside a rimmed tray before adding your melted white chocolate drizzle. This will allow any excess melted chocolate to drip onto the underneath sheet pan and not make a mess on your counter.
Once the chocolate firms up, you will need to transfer the blondies to a cutting board before slicing them.
STEP NINE: Allow the white chocolate drizzle to firm up completely before slicing and serving.
PRO TIP:
You can use the overhanging parchment paper to carefully lift the blondies out of the pan in one solid piece. You can then place them onto a cutting board and cut nice, even slices if desired.
