Brown Butter Blondies

Makes one 8x8-inch pan

10 tablespoons (142g) unsalted butter
1 cup (200g) dark brown sugar
1 large egg, cold from the fridge
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon kosher salt (diamond crystal)
1 cup (128g) all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup (170g) chocolate chips or m&ms plus more to sprinkle
Flaky salt, to sprinkle (optional)

Heat oven to 350ºF and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper

Brown the butter: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until all of the milk solids turn golden and the butter has a nutty fragrance being careful not to let it burn. 

Add the butter to a large bowl, then add the brown sugar. Whisk to combine then whisk in the salt and vanilla. Whisk in the egg.

Fold in the flour and baking powder. When a few streaks of flour remain, fold in the chocolate.

Transfer the batter to the pan and smooth the top then sprinkle with more chocolate and a bit of flaky salt if desired.

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until set on the edges and still soft in the center. Let the blondies cool in the pan set on a rack.
