Equipment
- 8-inch square pan
- small mixing bowl
- medium mixing bowl
- Parchment paper
Ingredients
Blondie Base:
- 2 ¼ cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup softened butter
- ½ cup unrefined coconut oil (room temperature)
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup white sugar
- 2 room temperature eggs
- 1 ½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 ¼ cups sweetened shredded coconut
- â…” cup pecans or walnuts
Topping (Optional):
- 4 oz semisweet chocolate bar chunks or ½ cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat your oven to 325°F. Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
- Whisk Dry Ingredients: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together 2 ¼ cups flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- Cream Together: In a medium mixing bowl, add 1/2 cup softened butter, ½ cup unrefined coconut oil, ½ cup brown sugar, and ½ cup white sugar. Mix until smooth and creamy. Add 2 room temperature eggs and 1 ½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract, whisk until well combined.
- Combine Wet & Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined & no specs of flour remain. Be careful not to overmix—this keeps the blondies soft and chewy.
- Fold in the Mix-ins: Gently fold in 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips, 1 ¼ cups sweetened shredded coconut and ⅔ cup pecans or walnuts until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Bake: Spread the batter evenly into the prepared 8×8 pan. Add the chocolate chunks in a single layer on top of the batter. Bake for about 40 minutes. As oven temperatures can vary, its a good idea to start checking around the 30-35 minute mark. The blondies are done when the edges are golden brown, the top looks set and no longer raw.
- Cool & Enjoy: Let the blondies cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy!
