Ingredient Notes

  • Unsalted butter- Melt it and let it slightly cool. If it is too hot, it will cook the eggs.
  • Brown sugar- I used light brown sugar.
  • Egg yolk- The extra egg yolk gives it a more gooey texture.
  • White chocolate chips- Use actual white chocolate chips vs vanilla flavored white chips. I love Ghirardelli.
  • Cream cheese- Use full fat cream cheese.

Step By Step Instructions

Here are the steps to make and bake these white chocolate blondie bars. This recipe doesn’t need an electric mixer to make the batter! For the frosting, you can use a stand mixer with a paddle attachment or a hand mixer.

STEP 1: Melt the butter. The melted butter needs to be cooled to room temperature before using.

STEP 2: Mix the wet ingredients. Next, mix the butter, brown sugar, vanilla extract, large eggs, and egg yolk in a large bowl. This can be mixed with a rubber spatula.

STEP 3: Add the dry ingredients. Then, mix in the all-purpose flour and salt. Make sure to use a sifter to prevent flour lumps getting into the batter.

STEP 4: Mix in white chocolate chips. The recipe says 3/4ths cup of white chocolate chips, but you can add up to 1 cup. Especially if you love white chocolate chips.

Cool the bars completely on a cooling rack before taking them out of the pan..

STEP 6: Make the frosting. Beat the cream cheese and butter on high speed in a medium bowl. Then, add in the powdered sugar and cinnamon.

Expert Tips

First, make sure to spray the entire pan with baking non-stick spray. Then, line it with parchment paper. This will make it a lot easier to remove the bars from the pan.

When the blondies are done baking, they will sink slightly. A slight sink means they are still gooey in the middle. If they sink dramatically, they need more time. If they don’t sink at all, they are over baked.

For best results the bars need to cool completely before taking them out of the pan. If you try to remove them while they are warm, they will fall apart.

The frosting for these is optional, but it is a great way to make them more fun!
