We are OBSESSED with these snickerdoodle blondies! This recipe combines two of our favorite desserts, all rolled up into one!
It essentially looks like a Blondie and tastes like a Snickerdoodle! It has a sweet, cake-like texture, and the cinnamon sugar topping gives it that snickerdoodle flavor.
Save time and feed the crew with less effort using the recipe. Plus, it preps in minutes! And for more bar desserts, check out our Funfetti Blondies or Snickerdoodle Bars.
Why we think you’ll love it:
- No rolling, no dipping. You get the same cookie taste with half of the work – and only one batch!
- Feeds a crowd. It makes a pan full and can be cut into large or small pieces.
- A tasty twist. We’ve switched up the traditional blondie recipe with a cinnamon and sugar variation!
Snickerdoodle Blondies Ingredients And Substitutions
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup butter – see How to Soften Butter Quickly

- 1 egg – We found that room-temperature eggs incorporate better than cold ones.
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour – see How to Measure Flour
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
How to Make Snickerdoodle Blondies
- PREP. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
- BATTER. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in egg, vanilla, and salt. Stir in flour and mix well.
- TOPPING. Press the cookie dough into the greased pan. In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle evenly over the top.
- BAKE. Bake for 25-30 minutes.
Kristyn’s Recipe Tips
- Double the recipe ingredients and bake in a 9×13 pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes.
- The parchment paper not only makes for easy cleanup, but you can use it to lift out the block to easily slice into bars.
- For a fun variation, we often mix cinnamon chips or white chocolate chips into the dough.
