Brown Butter Toffee Blondies<br /><br />Next up in our Brownies, Blondies, Blondie Brownies recipe series: Brown Butter Toffee Blondies Recipe. Glen 'found' some Mackintosh's Toffee at the grocery store and thought it would be the perfect addition to a brown butter blondie brownie recipe... and he was right!<br />Ingredients:<br />1 cup (250 mL / 230g) unsalted butter<br />2 cups (500 mL / 320g) all-purpose flour<br />1 tsp (5 mL / 7g) coarse salt<br />2 eggs<br />4 tsp (20 mL) pure vanilla extract<br />1 3/4 cups (315g) dark brown sugar <br />1 cup (250 mL / 150g) toffee bits<br /><br /><br />Method:<br />Preheat oven to 350°F (180ºC).<br />Grease an 9x9" baking pan and line with a parchment paper sling.<br />Brown the butter over medium heat.<br />Stir occasionally, it will foam and spatter as the water content 'boils' off.<br />The butter is ready when the foaming stops and you see brown bits at the bottom of the pan. <br />Pour into a large bowl and allow to cool. <br />Whisk together flour and salt. <br />In a stand mixer, whisk together eggs and brown sugar.<br />When light and frothy whisk in vanilla and the cooled butter.<br />Add flour mixture to the butter/sugar/egg mixture, and mix just until combined.<br />Add the toffee bits. <br />Mix until evenly distributed, but be careful not to over-mix! <br />Scrape dough into your prepared baking pan and spread into the corners.<br />Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. <br />You'll know it's done when you see a crispy top that's just starting to crack with firm slightly-browned edges. <br />Remove from the oven. <br />Cool completely before removing from the pan.
