Ingredients
  

For the Blondies:
  • 2 1/8 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 12 tablespoons butter melted and cooled slightly
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
For the Frosting:
  • 1 stick unsalted butter for frosting
  • 3 cups confectioners' sugar for frosting
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder for frosting
  • 4 tablespoons whole milk or half and half for frosting
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt for frosting
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla for frosting
  • 1 stick unsalted butter for second layer of frosting
  • 3 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar for second layer of frosting
  • 4 tablespoons whole milk or half and half for second layer of frosting
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt for second layer of frosting
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla for second layer of frosting
  • Sprinkles for decoration

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • 9x13-inch baking pan
  • Spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Parchment paper

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your blondies bake evenly.
  2. Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides to help with removal later. Grease the parchment for easy release.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt. Set this mixture aside.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Whisk until well blended. Add in the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
  5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix—this keeps your blondies chewy.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the blondies cool in the pan before frosting.
  7. In a mixing bowl, beat together 1 stick of unsalted butter, 3 cups of confectioners' sugar, 3/4 cup cocoa powder, 4 tablespoons of milk, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  8. Once the blondies are completely cool, spread the chocolate frosting evenly over the top using a spatula.
  9. In another bowl, beat together 1 stick of unsalted butter, 3 1/2 cups of confectioners' sugar, 4 tablespoons of milk, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
  10. Spread the second layer of frosting evenly over the chocolate frosting layer, creating a beautiful two-tiered effect.
  11. Top the frosted blondies with colorful sprinkles, adding a festive touch.
  12. Refrigerate the blondies for at least 30 minutes to set the frosting. Once firm, lift the blondies out of the pan using the parchment paper, and cut them into bite-sized squares.

Notes

  • Make sure your butter is melted and slightly cooled to avoid cooking the eggs when mixed.
  • Use room-temperature eggs for better incorporation into the batter.
  • Don’t overbake the blondies—remove them from the oven as soon as a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Allow the blondies to cool completely before frosting to prevent melting.
