I got a new cookbook that I am just loving so far, called “100 Cookies” by Sarah Kieffer. Everything I’ve made so far has been delightful. These blondies are the latest try. So good!

1 1/2 cups flour

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) butter

1 1/2 cup brown sugar

3/4 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 tablespoons vanilla

1 egg, at room temperature

3/4 cup toasted pecans, chopped

3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup white chocolate chips

1 Heat oven to 350. Grease a 9 x 13″ baking pan.

2 In a large bowl, whisk together flour and baking powder.

3 In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, brown sugar, and salt. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Let cool to room temperature. Whisk in egg.

4 Transfer to bowl with flour and baking powder and stir just until combined. Add pecans and chips and stir in gently.

5 Transfer to prepared pan and spread into even layer. Bake 18 – 24 minutes or until blondies are set and top is golden brown and just beginning to form cracks and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Let cool completely before cutting into squares.
