Ingredients
Scale
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
2 cups granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
For the Cinnamon Sugar Topping:
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan, or line it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides.
In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and 2 cups of granulated sugar until well combined.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
In a small bowl, combine the 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon of cinnamon for the topping.
Spread about two-thirds of the blondie batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
Sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar topping over the batter.
Dollop the remaining one-third of the batter over the cinnamon sugar, then gently spread it to cover.
Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon sugar topping over the top layer of batter.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached.
Let the blondies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into bars.
Notes
For chewier blondies, slightly underbake.
Ensure your baking soda is fresh for the best rise.
You can add a pinch of cream of tartar to the cinnamon sugar topping for a more authentic snickerdoodle tang.
