Ingredients
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg, at room temperature
- 2 Tablespoons peanut butter chips
- 8 White Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups (Five of them will each be cut into 6 pieces and folded into the batter. The other three will each be cut into 4 pieces and pressed on top of the blondies)
Preparation
Step 1
Sift the flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda into a bowl. Set aside.
In a bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, mix together the brown sugar, butter and vanilla. Mix for about 2 minutes.
Add in the egg and mix to incorporate it into the batter.
Slowly add in the dry ingredients and mix until almost combined.
Take a spatula and fold everything together.
Add in the peanut butter chips and fold them in.
Take 5 of the peanut butter cups and chop each one into 6 pieces. Throw them into the batter and fold them in.
Take the other 3 peanut butter cups and chop each one into 4 pieces. Set these aside.
Spread the batter into a lightly greased 8 by 8 inch baking pan. It will seem like there isn’t a lot of batter but don’t worry.
Bake the blondies at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Then press the remaining peanut butter cups on top of the blondies and bake for another 5 minutes. The total baking time is 25 minutes.
Cool the pan on a cooling rack and then cut into pieces. Enjoy!
