Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Batter
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, 1 cup of granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Step 2: Make the Cinnamon Swirl
- In a small bowl, mix the remaining ⅛ cup of sugar with 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon.
- Pour half of the blondie batter into the prepared pan and smooth it out.
- Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the batter.
- Pour the remaining blondie batter on top and smooth it out.
- Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture over the top.
- Use a knife or toothpick to gently swirl the cinnamon mixture into the batter for a marbled effect.
Step 3: Bake & Cool
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the blondies cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy
- Cut into 16 squares and enjoy as-is or with a dusting of powdered sugar for extra sweetness!
Notes
- For Extra Chewiness: Slightly underbake by removing from the oven when the center is just set.
- Add a Topping: Drizzle with cream cheese glaze or caramel sauce for a decadent twist.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
