Ingredients

  • 10 tablespoons (141 g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 ¾ cups (384 g) light brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons (10 ml) pure vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups (180 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon (9.5 g) corn starch
  • 1 teaspoon (5 g) ground cinnamon
  • ¾ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons (42 g) unsalted butter, melted (for swirl)
  • 2 tablespoons (28 g) light brown sugar (for swirl)
  • 1 tablespoon (12 g) granulated sugar (for swirl)
  • 2 teaspoons (5 g) all-purpose flour (for swirl)
  • 1 teaspoon (5 g) ground cinnamon (for swirl)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment.
  2. In a bowl, mix melted butter and brown sugar until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla, stir until combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk flour, corn starch, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Add dry mixture to wet and mix until just combined.
  4. For the swirl, mix melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, flour, and cinnamon into a thick paste.
  5. Press half the dough into prepared pan. Drizzle two-thirds of swirl mixture and marble with a knife.
  6. Top with remaining dough, spread gently, drizzle with remaining swirl, and marble again.
  7. Bake 30–35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs. Cool completely before slicing into bars.

Notes

  • Drizzle cream cheese glaze for extra richness.
  • Add chopped pecans or walnuts for crunch.
  • Mix in mini chocolate chips for a chocolatey twist.
  • Add nutmeg or cardamom with cinnamon for more spice.
  • Use 1:1 gluten-free flour blend for gluten-free blondies.
