The easiest, fudgiest chocolate chip blondies

- sweets -

The first time I made these blondies, I was procrastinating studying for exams in May, so I saw it fitting to get the recipe up around exam week. They are super easy to throw together on a school night but so fudge-y (the only way brownies/blondies should be!)

INGREDIENTS

1/2 c (1 stick) butter, melted and cooled for a couple minutes
1 c light brown sugar
1 egg, thoroughly beaten
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
1 c AP flour
pinch of salt
3/4 - 1 c chocolate chips

​

DIRECTIONS

1. preheat oven to 350ºF
2. prep an 8x8 (or 9x11 if doubling the recipe) with parchment paper AND nonstick cooking/baking spray
3. thoroughly combine the butter and brown sugar (i prefer a stand or hand mixer on 4-5 for this, i wouldn't suggest doing this by hand)
4. combine the whisked egg and vanilla with the butter/sugar mixture
5. lower the stand/hand mixer to a slower speed and mix in the flour and salt until just combined
6. fold in the chocolate chips with a rubber spatula
7. scoop batter out into the baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes.
8. when done, leave the blondies uncut in the pan until cooled completely (they will carry-over cook and set up during this time)
9. cut when completely cooled - enjoy!
