Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup (100g) packed light brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups (188g) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 12–15 mini peanut butter cups
Instructions
- Preheat & Prepare Pan: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line an 8×8 inch pan with parchment, leaving an overhang.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until combined. Add egg and vanilla, whisk until smooth.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Assemble & Bake: Spread half the batter in the pan. Arrange peanut butter cups evenly, then cover with remaining batter. Bake 25–30 minutes, until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool & Serve: Let cool at least 15 minutes. Lift out using parchment, slice into squares, and enjoy warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- Tip: Don’t overmix the batter to keep blondies soft and chewy.
- Variation: Swap peanut butter cups with caramel chocolates or cookie butter cups for a twist.
- Serving: Best enjoyed slightly warm for melty peanut butter centers.
