Title: Mini Kiss Blondie Bars
Ingredients:
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 1 cup brown sugar, packed
– 1 large egg
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1/2 cup chocolate chips or chunks
– Mini Hershey’s Kisses, unwrapped
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal later.
2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
3. In a separate large mixing bowl, mix the melted butter and brown sugar until smooth and creamy.
4. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and mix until fully incorporated.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
6. Gently fold in the chocolate chips or chunks, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
7. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out into an even layer.
8. Press the Mini Hershey’s Kisses into the batter, evenly spaced apart. You can arrange them in rows or scatter them around randomly.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
10. Allow the bars to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes, then use the parchment paper overhang to lift them out onto a cutting board. Let them cool completely before slicing into desired-sized bars.
