i die. literally. these are absolutely amazing. i undercooked them on purpose, because a gooey brownie knocks the socks off of any other dessert out there! i added the whiskey, and chocolate chunks and topped with a whiskey whipped cream. sugar high anyone? :)

Just made these and they are thin and very gooey. Am I correct that they do not have any baking soda or baking powder? I used an 8 x 8 pan and followed directions exactly. Suggestions?

Oh my goodness. It is superbowl day and I will be adding bourbon, chocolate chips, and pecans. What a good versatile recipe!! Thanks for sharing!

Did they set at all as they cooled? They’re on the gooey side, but do set for me as they cool. (I think the best chocolate chip cookies, as well, look underbaked when you pull them out of the oven but do mostly firm up as they cool.)

I made these christmas time as a double recipe in a 9×13 and they would not set. They tasted amazing but even at double the time (my oven temp is accurate that was the first thing I checked). I made them with a very ripe banana, coconut and pecans. Today I made them in an 8×8 with choc chips, butterscotch chips and nuts and again they are not cooked in the middle with double the time. I know you are going to ask me if I am sure my oven is alright but I bake ALOT and this is the only recipe that is not working. I weighed the ingreadients this time and they are all fresh so I don’t understand what the problem is. Any suggestions?

I just took these out of the oven, and they are delicious! I mixed in one mashed (and disgustingly overripe) banana, the remnants of a bag of toffee pieces, and a couple handfuls of pretzels that I crushed. These seem to be the perfect vehicle for cleaning out the cupboards! I’ve been dreaming about blondies since elementary school – my school’s lunch ladies made the best homemade blondies, and I’ve never found a recipe I liked that much. This is it!

Hello! Firstly, I just wanted to get it out there–I absolutely LOVE this blog! I realize this is an older post but I have it bookmarked and it’s definitely become one of my go-to recipes. I just wanted to share that the other day I spooned the batter into some porcelain ramekins and scooped ice cream on top for individually portioned pizookies. In the past I’ve also baked this in a round cake pan and scooped ice cream on top for a group to share. I love making it with the almond extract as a variation from the usual vanilla–everyone who’s tried it is intrigued by the difference and loves the way it tastes! Thanks for posting such an awesome recipe…along with all the others on this site! I’ve lost count of how many of your recipes I’ve bookmarked over the years. Thank you, thank you, thank you! :D

Hi, greetings from Sweden. I found this recipe while looking for the other kind of blondies, y’know, brownies but with white chocolate instead, and was instantly intrigued! So, first, thanks for adding the grams as well, made things alot easier. And second, haven’t tasted them yet, they’re still in the oven, but OH MY GOD, I have never tasted a batter that tasty! So thanks, will be using again!

I just made these and was really looking forward to them but unfortunatly I chose to use the Almond extract insead of Vanilla. It is extremely overpowering even over chocolate and peanut butter chips! I would recommend a quarter of a tea spoon for those that don’t want an overwhelming almond taste or just use vanilla. I will try it that way next time and i’m sure it will be excellent!
