Caramel

1
|
In a medium-sized pot, combine the sugar, salt, cream of tartar, and water. Cook over medium-high heat, swirling the pan often so the sugar melts evenly. Once it comes to a boil, reduce the heat to medium. When the color turns a medium amber, remove from heat and add butter one cube at a time, swirling with each addition. Then, pour in the heavy cream and vanilla and stir until completely smooth.
2
|
Allow the caramel to cool for a few minutes before transferring to a glass jar. Place in the fridge until ready to use.

Blondies

1
|
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x9 inch square pan and line with parchment paper.
2
|
Start by making the brown butter. Heat the butter over medium heat in a sauce pan for several minutes, swirling to even out the color. The butter will be ready once the fat solids have separated and darkened, and the butter is an even medium amber color. Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool as you prepare the other ingredients.
3
|
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
4
|
In a separate bowl, mix together the brown sugar and brown butter until fully combined. Then, mix in the eggs and vanilla.
5
|
Fold the dry ingredients into the wet until just combined. Then, fold in the chocolate chunks.
6
|
Press the dough into the prepared pan, smoothing it out to make as even as possible.
7
|
Drizzle a small amount of caramel on top of the blondie dough and use a tooth pick to swirl it.
8
|
Bake the blondies for 30-35 minutes. Allow to cool completely before cutting.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Brown Butter Timing ⏱️
    Brown the butter over medium heat until it reaches a deep nutty aroma (about 8-10 minutes), then cool completely before mixing into batter to prevent cooking the eggs and preserve the rich, toasted flavor.
  • Homemade Caramel Swirl Technique 🌀
    Pour warm caramel in thin lines across the batter, then use a toothpick or knife to create swirls immediately before baking—this prevents the caramel from sinking to the bottom and ensures even distribution throughout.
  • Rye Flour Integration 🌾
    Don't exceed the specified amount of rye flour (it has a strong flavor) and sift it together with all-purpose flour to prevent dense pockets and ensure the subtle earthy notes complement rather than overpower the chocolate and caramel.
  • Chocolate Chunk Size Matters 🍫
    Chop semi-sweet chocolate into irregular, varied-size chunks rather than uniform pieces—larger chunks create pockets of melted richness while smaller pieces provide consistent flavor distribution throughout each bite.
  • Underbake for Chewy Texture 🎯
    Remove blondies from the oven when a toothpick inserted in the center still shows a few moist crumbs (not fully clean)—they'll continue cooking as they cool and develop that coveted fudgy, chewy interior rather than becoming dry and cakey.
