White Chocolate, Yum!!

Okay, okay – I know I post lots of dessert recipes, we just like desserts at our house, so we’ll take any excuse to make them. 😉

Today, I’m sharing another great bar recipe!! White Chocolate Brownies are chewy and delicious. I’ve mentioned before my love for white chocolate (yes, I like it more than milk chocolate) so you could guess I prefer blondies over brownies (no worries – I still like brownies too!!)

I know there are some of you like me out there so if you are a fan of blondies and would like to try a new recipe for them, then this is the one.

It’s an easy recipe and other than the white chips, I’m sure you have all the ingredients on hand.

Making White Brownies

MELT. Melt butter and ½ cup of the white chocolate chips in a microwave, checking every 15 seconds. Let cool.

CREAM. Beat eggs, sugar and vanilla extract in a medium bowl. Mix in the cooled butter and chocolate mixture along with the flour and salt. Stir until combined. Pour the batter into a 9×13 greased baking pan; sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup white chocolate chips.

BAKE. Bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool in pan for at least 10 minutes before cutting.

Storing, Tips + Variations

STORE Blondies at room temperature for about 3 days. They’ll last even longer when stored in an airtight container in the fridge; about a week.

For even longer storage FREEZE them. Wrap each piece with plastic wrap and place them all in a freezer safe container. Freeze for up to 3 months.

As mentioned you can serve with ice cream, vanilla is particularly delicious paired with this. You can also change it up by topping with slivered almonds, chopped macadamia nuts, or drizzle with caramel.

  • Add M&Ms
  • Add sprinkles
  • Add chopped nuts

To make cutting easier line the pan with parchment paper. Once they’ve cooled simply lift the entire block out of the pan and cut.

To get clean cuts you will want them to cool completely and use a sharp knife: clean the knife after each cut.

For the fudgiest softest texture don’t let them overcook. I always take mine out as soon as the timer buzzes.

If you use a glass pan you will need to add a little bit more bake time. 

For best results use unsalted butter. No margarine or oil substitutes for this treat!

Usually the biggest difference between a brownie and a blondie is that blondies use brown sugar instead of a brown chocolate base. However, this recipe just replaces the brown chocolate with white chocolate. A little more white sugar is used to make up for the lack of brown sugar. Feel free to adjust the sugar amount to your liking.

We don’t have brown sugar in the recipe, but if you want to make sure that these are chewy you can do ½ white sugar and ½ brown sugar instead. You could also add an extra egg yolk to the batter for added moisture and chewiness.

    This is right up my alley. Gooey white chocolate. That’s exactly what I put in the Pinterest search bar that brought me here. I used 2 bars of white chocolate that I mixed with the butter & mixed a ton of white chips in the batter. I ate half of it warm, I couldn’t resist but they will set up if you let them cool overnight. I used crisco to help it not stick. It was excellent. Our oven is new so you may need to cook it longer than 35-40 mins but mine was perfect at 40.

    Thank you! Yummo! I did make a couple extra additions of white chocolate and vanilla. …once the chocolate/butter was melted and mixed together, while cooling I added another 1/2 cup chips that only partially melted before adding to sugar/eggs. Added a Tbsp of vanilla. Then mixed in 1/4 c chips after the flour, then 1/4 cup chips on top. And sprinkles within and on top as well cuz everything’s better with sprinkles! Turned out Perfect!

    They taste good but I had to put them in for an hour and it came out like a cake, not like a blonde. Still tastes good though

  4. Mine finally set after 45 minutes!!! Wooot also once cooked and eaten they are so moist ! And chewy I really like them but I was scared it wasn’t going to work they were NOT cooking cm for awhile either turn your heat up and go less time of 45 minutes worked for me at 325

  5. In 2 differs areas in this article there. Is a discrepancy in baking temperatures. Should they bake at 350 or 325 degrees???

    Great recipe! I especially like that the variations are easy and endless. I needed something this morning for a bake sale and the item I made the night before was an epic fail. So I decided to try this recipe. Then I discovered I was out of butter…but I did have ghee on hand. So I substituted ghee for the butter 1:1, added some pecans to the mix and on the top, and a bag of freeze dried strawberries & bananas (crushed), and cut the salt to 1/8 tsp. OMG. It was like eating banana bread blondies (the strawberries weren’t really noticeable)! I just made another batch for tomorrow (3 day sale) but this time I added a bag of freeze dried raspberries (crushed), and 1-1/2 tsp raspberry extract (in addition to the vanilla) but totally omitted the salt. The raspberries are tart enough that you don’t need the salt to cut the sweet. Awesome! Thanks for posting such a fun recipe!!

  7. I have a brand new oven and totally went according to the recipe. This was a waste of money. Waaaay too sweet! The bars were sloppy wet inside after 30 minutes. I put them in for 5 more minutes, still too wet. After 5 more minutes they were still not even close to being set up. 5 more minutes then I took them out let them cool. They either don’t have enough flour or too much butter. I don’t recommend these and I won’t be making them again.

      It was very good. I used a little less sugar than the recipe said to do. I baked this for my boyfriend birthday. It was perfect as he likes less sweat desserts.
