Best Blondies



















I made these Blondie's for Alex's class...they loved them. A couple of the boys asked for my secret recipe so here it is.... I omitted the nuts and coconut for the kids version. They are great either way.

The Best Blondies
1 c pecans, chopped
1 1/2 c shredded coconut
1 1/2 c flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
12 Tbs unsalted butter (1 1/2 sticks) melted and cooled
1 1/2 c light brown sugar
2 large eggs lightly beaten
2 tsp vanilla
8 ounces chocolate chips

Set oven @ 350. Grease and pam spray 9 x 13 glass baking dish.
Wisk flour, baking powder, salt in bowl, set aside
Wisk melted butter and brown sugar til combined. Add eggs and vanilla and mix well. Fold in dry ingredients with spatula til just combined. Fold in chocolate, coconut and nuts and pour into prepared pan , smoothing top with spatula.
Bake 25-30 minutes. DO NOT overbake. Top will be shiney,cracked and gloden brown. Cool to room temp on wire rack before cutting.
