Fleur de Sel Chocolate Chip Blondies Ingredients

• 2 sticks unsalted butter, softened, plus more for pan
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 2 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• Pinch fine sea salt, if desired
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 3 cups semisweet chocolate chips
• 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons fleur de sel

How To Make Fleur de Sel Chocolate Chip Blondies

1. Prep oven and cream butter: Preheat your oven to 375°F. Grease a 9×13-inch jelly roll pan. In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the softened butter for about 2 minutes until light and fluffy.
2. Add sugars and eggs: Gradually add the brown and granulated sugars and cream the mixture for about 8 minutes, until very light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
3. Combine the batter: In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, and fine sea salt. On low speed, slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
4. Spread and bake: Spread the cookie dough into the prepared pan. Evenly sprinkle the top of the dough with the fleur de sel. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the center is not wobbly.
5. Cool and serve: Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting them into bars and serving.

Recipe Tips

• How to get a perfectly chewy texture? The key is to not overbake them. The blondies are ready when the edges are set and golden, but the center is still slightly soft. They will continue to set as they cool in the hot pan.
• Can I make these ahead of time? Yes, these bars are a great make-ahead treat. They can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
• What is fleur de sel and can I substitute it? Fleur de sel is a delicate, flaky sea salt harvested from the top layer of salt marshes. It provides a wonderful crunchy texture and clean, salty flavor. If you can’t find it, a coarse sea salt is a good substitute.
• Can I add nuts to this recipe? Absolutely. About 1 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans would be a delicious addition. Fold them in along with the chocolate chips.

What To Serve With Chocolate Chip Blondies

These rich and chewy bars are a perfect treat on their own.

• A tall glass of cold milk
• A scoop of vanilla bean or coffee ice cream
• A cup of hot coffee or an espresso

How To Store Chocolate Chip Blondies

• Room Temperature: Store the completely cooled blondies in an airtight container at room temperature. Placing parchment paper between layers will prevent them from sticking. They will stay fresh for up to one week.
