Equipment

  • 9x13 baking pan

Ingredients

For the blondies:

  • cups butter unsalted
  • cups brown sugar packed
  • teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 eggs
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¾ teaspoon salt

For the maple glaze:

  • 1/4 cup of butter melted
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and line a 9x13 pan with parchment paper
  • To make the blondies: Place butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until it is fragrant and a nutty brown color. Take off the heat and let cool to room temperature.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
  • In a larger bowl, beat together browned butter and brown sugar until smooth and creamy. Beat in eggs and vanilla.
  • Stir in dry ingredients until just combined. Smooth batter into prepared pan and bake 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  • To make the glaze: Combine all ingredients and whisk until smooth. Pour over warm blondies and let cool completely before cutting.

Notes

I like these blondies to be slightly gooey on the inside, so I take them out of the oven when a toothpick still comes out with a few crumbs. 
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or in the freezer for a few months.
