Instructions
Simply The Best Reese’s Peanut Butter Blondies…
Ingredients
For the Blondie:
-
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ¾ cup (1 ½ sticks) unsalted butter
- 2 cups light brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup Reese’s peanut butter chips
- ½ cup Ghirardelli milk chocolate chips
- 1 cup (rounded) mini Reese’s cups
For the Reese’s Peanut Butter Icing:
- 6 tablespoons butter, unsalted
- ½ cup evaporated milk
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 6 oz Reese’s Peanut Butter Chips
- 1 ½ cups sifted powdered sugar (approximately)
Instructions
To make the Blondie:
-
- Preheat oven to 350°. Generously butter a 13x9x2 inch glass or pyrex baking pan.
- Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl and set aside.
- Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat, swirling several times a minute, until browned bits cling to the bottom of the pan and the butter takes on a slightly nutty aroma. Transfer brown butter to a medium bowl. Be sure to get all the nutty goodness from the pan!
- Add brown sugar and beat, with an electric mixer, until well combined and mixture resembles wet sand, 2-3 minutes.
- Add eggs and vanilla; beat until fluffy, 2 minutes. Add dry ingredients and beat until smooth. The batter will be very thick.
- Fold in milk chocolate chips, peanut butter chips and mini Reese’s cups. Turn out into prepared baking dish.
- Using an offset spatula, evenly spread batter in pan.
- Bake blondie until golden brown or the center no longer jiggles when gently shaken, 20-25 minutes. The toothpick test will not work here because of all the mix-ins. Be careful not to over bake! Let cool completely in pan on a wire rack.
For the Icing:
- Combine butter, milk, and salt in a heatproof bowl; cook over a pan of simmering water (bain marie) until butter is melted and mixture is hot to the touch. Stir frequently.
- Remove from heat and add chips to the bowl; beating with an electric hand mixer until smooth and the chips have completely melted.
- Cool. This step only takes about 15 minutes, especially if you stir it frequently.
- Gradually add in powdered sugar and beat until thick enough to spread but not runny.
- Spread onto cooled blondies with an offset spatula.
Notes:
Note: You can halve this recipe and use an 8 x 8 inch baking dish.
