Like A Brownie, But Blonde

Everyone loves a good brownie, but sometimes you just want to change things up. If that's the case, welcome to the blondie. It is very similar to the brownie in terms of preparation, consistency and baking, but it is more buttery in flavour as you does not have a chocolate base. 

You have the freedom with a blondie, like with a brownie, to play around with what you add into the blondie to take it to that extra level. With this recipe, I added chocolate chips - it basically looks like a giant chocolate chip cookie crossed with a brownie. 

Here's the recipe:

115g unsalted butter, melted

215g dark brown sugar

1 large egg

1 1/2tsp vanilla extract

1/8tsp salt

130g plain flour

100g chocolate chips

1. Preheat oven to 180C and line an 8inch square baking tin. 
2. Mix together melted butter and brown sugar until blended. Add in egg, vanilla and salt and beat until smooth. 
3. Add in flour and continue to beat until fully incorporated and the batter becomes quite thick. Fold in chocolate chips. 
4. Pour batter into lined baking tin and bake for 20 to 25 mins until skewer comes out mostly clean. 
5. Allow to cool completely before cutting and serving.
