Ingredients
For the white chocolate pistachio blondies
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3/4 cup light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp almond extract
- 1 1/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2/3 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup roughly chopped shelled lightly salted (or salted) pistachios, plus more for garnish
For the white chocolate drizzle
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 350F and line an 8x8 inch square baking pan with parchment paper. (If using a 9x9 pan see notes below on baking time).
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter, white and brown sugar until combined. Add the egg, vanilla extract and almond extract and mix well.
- Using a spoon or spatula, mix flour, baking powder and salt into wet ingredients, stirring until everything comes together and no clumps of flour remain (it will be quite thick like cookie dough). Add in the white chocolate chips and roughly chopped pistachios and fold in until well combined.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared pan and smooth out the top so the batter reaches the edges of the pan.
- Bake for 24-26 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. You'll see the sides of the blondies get a little golden brown and pull away from the sides of the pan. Don't over bake. Let the blondies cool completely in the pan.
- Once cooled, make the white chocolate drizzle by adding the white chocolate to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30 second bursts, stirring after each 30 seconds, until melted, this can take 1 minute total or so.
- Drizzle the blondies with melted white chocolate chips, top with extra roughly chopped pistachios and cut into 9 or 12 squares and enjoy!
Notes
- Elevate these white chocolate pistachio blondies even further by adding a sprinkle of flaky salt to each blondie.
- Cooking times can always vary depending on your oven. So, I suggest checking for doneness at 24 minutes as they may take less or more time than indicated in the recipe.
- Make these into Christmas blondies by substituting half of the white chocolate for dried cranberries.
