Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup Brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup Granulated sugar
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Caramel candies, unwrapped and coarsely chopped
  • For sprinkling Sea salt flakes

Get Started

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan. This will prevent the blondies from sticking.

Combine Dry Ingredients

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. This ensures that the baking powder is evenly distributed.

Combine Wet Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until well combined. Make sure the butter isn't too hot, or it might cook the eggs.

Add Eggs and Vanilla

Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract. Mix until the batter is smooth and glossy.

Combine Wet and Dry

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough blondies.

Add Caramel

Fold in the chopped caramel candies. Distribute them evenly throughout the batter.

Bake

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Sprinkle with sea salt flakes. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Be careful not to overbake, or the blondies will be dry.

Cool and Serve

Let the blondies cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes before cutting into squares. Enjoy!
