- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Whisk together until smooth and well combined.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Fold in the chopped pecans until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula. Tap the pan lightly on the counter to release air bubbles.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Let the blondies cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into squares.
Notes
- For an extra layer of flavor, toast the pecans in a dry pan for 3-5 minutes before adding to the batter.
- Be careful not to overbake to ensure the centers remain soft and chewy.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
