Instructions
- Prepare the Pan:
-
Step 1- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8 by 8-inch metal pan with foil or parchment paper. Spray with nonstick cooking spray.
-
Step 2- Melt the Butter: In a large microwave-safe bowl, heat the butter in 30-second increments until melted. Add the sugar to the hot butter and whisk to combine. Let cool until just warm.
-
Step 3- Mix the Wet Ingredients: Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla and whisk vigorously until smooth. Stir in the salt, baking powder, and flour with a rubber spatula. Gently stir in 1 1/2 cups (255 grams) of the mix-ins.
-
Step 4- Spread the Batter: Evenly spread the batter into the prepared pan. Top with remaining mix-ins.
-
Step 5- Bake the Blondies: For an ooey-gooey center, bake until the edges are lightly golden but the center still jiggles slightly, about 25 minutes. For a firmer center, bake until the edges are golden brown and the center is lightly golden and set, 30-35 minutes. Set pan on wire rack and allow to cool before cutting. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt before serving.

Storage tips
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for longer freshness. You can also freeze them for a quick treat later!
