Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 3/4 cup (150g) brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups (160g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter (for cinnamon filling)
  • 1/4 cup (50g) brown sugar (for cinnamon filling)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for cinnamon filling)
  • 4 ounces (115g) softened cream cheese
  • 1 cup (120g) powdered sugar
  • 2–3 tablespoons milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until fully combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, sift together all-purpose flour, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients using a spatula. Do not overmix.
  4. In a small bowl, mix melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon for the cinnamon filling. Set aside.
  5. Pour half the blondie batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Drizzle half the cinnamon filling over the batter, then add the remaining batter. Top with the remaining cinnamon filling and use a knife to swirl gently.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely in the pan.
  7. Beat softened cream cheese with powdered sugar. Add milk, one tablespoon at a time, until the icing reaches your desired consistency.
  8. Spread or drizzle the icing over the cooled blondies. Slice into squares and serve.

Notes

[‘Make sure eggs and cream cheese are at room temperature to avoid clumps in the batter or icing.’, ‘Do not overmix the batter to ensure soft and chewy blondies.’, ‘If blondies seem underbaked in the center, let them sit in the pan for an extra 10 minutes after removing them from the oven.’, ‘Refrigerate blondies with icing to keep them fresh if not serving immediately.’]
