FAQs

How to know when blondies are cooked? ›

Bake for 30-35 mins for soft centred blondies (if you prefer a cakey texture, leave for another 5 mins). Check if the blondies are cooked by giving the tin a gentle shake, they should be mostly set but a little bit of a wobble in the centre is fine.

Over mixing the eggs: If you over mix the eggs, that can incorporate more air into the batter and cause them to sink. Underbaking the bars: Pulling the blondies out of the oven before the center has had time to bake through can also cause them to sink in the middle. Try baking them for a couple extra minutes next time!

Both have chewy textures. However, blondies have a much lighter and softer taste than brownies. The ingredients used in brownies are where the two recipes diverge the most. Blondies use vanilla extract and brown sugar instead of cocoa powder to get their flavor, while brownies use chocolate and cocoa.

The bake time can vary - please make sure your oven is on the correct setting, and check from 25+minutes and onwards till they are baked! These took 30 minutes in my fan oven. If they turn out cakey, they are over baked - that's all! Bake for a little less time next time.

Baking time: We found that 25 – 28 minutes was perfect for a more soft and gooey center, while 30 to 35 minutes resulted in a more firm center and more golden edges. Visual cues: Blondies are done baking when the middle is slightly jiggly and shiny on top, but the edges look solidified.

Yes! Just like brownies, blondies are definitely supposed to be gooey in the middle. What is this? They should have a crispy golden top, a chewy edge and a gooey middle.

In the UK, eggs with the Red Lion seal of approval are safe to eat raw or undercooked. So you can slightly undercook blondies and brownies if you prefer a fudgier texture. However, if you don't cook them enough, you just have a tray of uncooked batter.

You can tell the difference using the edges; if they are a little burnt-looking and very dry, it's likely that the brownies are overcooked. If the edges are overcooked but the centre is not, the temperature of your oven was too hot.

What did blondies used to be called? ›

The first recipe for blondies ever was published in 1896 by Fannie Farmer. She was a pioneer of modern American cookery. Interestingly they were called “brownies” when the recipe first came out but it contained vanilla and molasses instead of cocoa. which gave the blondies their golden color.

Visually, it is easy to tell a brookie and a blondie apart. Blondies are paler in color, while brookies have layers of chocolate marbled in. While a brookie houses both a cookie and a brownie taste, blondies use brown sugar as their primary flavoring.

You can use practically any kind of oil or fat in these brownies, but different varieties do affect the appearance of the brownies. I find that butter and coconut oil cause the brownies to be a little more “wrinkly” around the edges, while vegetable oil gives it that perfect crackly crust.

For every teaspoon of baking powder, you'll want to substitute in ¼ tsp of baking soda with ½ tsp of cream of tartar. If you don't have any cream of tartar, you can also substitute one teaspoon of baking powder with a mixture of ¼ tsp of baking soda plus ½ tsp of either vinegar or lemon juice.

Blondies are supposed to be fudgy, gooey, and chewy in the middle. However, they shouldn't be falling apart. If your blondies are coming apart in your hands, it's likely for one of three reasons: You didn't aerate the eggs enough.

The whole tray shouldn't wobble – but there should still be a bit in the middle as the blondies will continue to bake somewhat in the tin. A skewer test is hard, as jam or melted chocolate may come out on it – but there shouldn't be any raw batter!

The brownie's top should have a dry-looking sheen. At the edge of the pan, the brownies should be slightly puffed, and in the middle of the pan, the brownies should be set, and not wobbly.

Insert a toothpick to see if just a few crumbs stick.

If the toothpick comes out completely wet and coated with batter, you know the brownies are underdone and need more time.
