Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) and line a 9x9 pan with parchment paper.

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar together for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.

Mix in the molasses until fully combined.

Then, beat in the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla.

Add in the flour, baking soda, spices, and salt. Stir the dry ingredients a little on top of the wet ingredients just to make sure the baking soda doesn't stay in one clump.

Mix everything on low speed until just combined. Do not over-mix!

Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and spread into an even layer.

Bake the blondies for 20-25 minutes until set and golden.

Remove the blondies from the pan and place on a wire rack to cool completely.

If desired, melt the white chocolate in the microwave in 20 second intervals and drizzle over the blondies.

Cut into 16 squares and enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Bloom Your Spices 🌟
Toast the ground spices (ginger, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, cloves) in the melted butter for 30 seconds before adding other ingredients to intensify their warm flavors and eliminate any raw spice taste.
Molasses Temperature Matters 🍯
Warm your molasses slightly before mixing so it incorporates smoothly into the batter, ensuring even distribution of that deep, rich flavor throughout every bite.
Brown Sugar Packing Technique 🎯
Pack your dark brown sugar firmly into the measuring cup to maximize moisture content, which creates the signature chewy texture these blondies are known for.
White Chocolate Folding Strategy ✨
Chop white chocolate into varied sizes and fold it in gently at the very end to prevent melting while distributing creamy pockets throughout the batter.
Underbake for Chewiness ⏱️
Remove blondies from the oven when the edges are set but the center still jiggles slightly—they'll continue cooking as they cool, resulting in perfectly chewy bars rather than cakey ones.
