Ingredients

(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

½ cup white granulated sugar (100g / 3½oz)
½ cup light brown sugar, packed (100g / 3½oz)
1 cup plain flour or all-purpose flour (130g / about 4½oz)
¼ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
2 large eggs, room temperature
113g unsalted butter, melted (½ cup / 1 stick)
50g white chocolate, melted (about 1¾oz)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
⅔ cup white chocolate chips
⅔ cup fresh raspberries or frozen raspberries

Directions

Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan forced) or 350°F. Line an 8×8-inch square baking tin with baking paper.

Melt the butter and white chocolate separately in microwave-safe bowls or cups until just melted.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix well until there are no lumps.

Add the eggs, melted butter, melted white chocolate, and vanilla extract. Stir until fully combined.

Fold in half of the white chocolate chips.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking tin and smooth the top with a spatula.

Scatter the remaining white chocolate chips and raspberries over the top. Gently press some raspberries slightly into the batter.

Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the top is golden and dry.

Allow the blondies to cool in the tin for at least 45 minutes before removing and slicing into 16 squares.

Variations

Swap the raspberries for strawberries, blueberries, or blackberries for a different berry flavor.

Add chopped macadamia nuts or walnuts for extra crunch.

Use dark chocolate chips instead of white chocolate for a richer contrast.

For a citrus twist, add a little lemon zest to the batter.

Drizzle melted white chocolate over the cooled blondies for an elegant finish.

Storage/Reheating

Store the blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

For longer storage, refrigerate them for up to 1 week. Allow refrigerated blondies to come to room temperature before serving for the best texture.

You can also freeze the blondies for up to 2 months. Wrap individual pieces tightly and thaw at room temperature before eating.

To reheat, microwave a blondie for about 10 to 15 seconds for a warm and gooey texture.

FAQs

Can I use frozen raspberries?

Yes, frozen raspberries work well. Add them directly from frozen to avoid excess moisture.

What makes blondies different from brownies?

Blondies use vanilla and brown sugar instead of cocoa powder, giving them a caramel-like flavor.

Can I use salted butter?

Yes, but reduce or omit the added salt in the recipe.

How do I know when the blondies are done baking?

The top should look dry and lightly golden, while the center should still be slightly soft.

Can I make these gluten-free?

Why should the eggs be room temperature?

Room temperature eggs mix more evenly into the batter and help create a smoother texture.

Can I add extra chocolate chips?

Absolutely. You can increase the chocolate chips for a richer dessert.

How do I get clean slices?

Let the blondies cool completely before cutting and use a sharp knife wiped clean between cuts.

Can I make these ahead of time?

Yes, these blondies store very well and can be made a day in advance.

What should I serve with blondies?

They are delicious on their own or served with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or fresh berries.
