Ingredients
- Blondies:
- Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
- 2 cups flour
- 2 cups lightly packed dark brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup olive oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- Frosting:
- 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of kosher salt
- Sprinkles, for topping, optional
Directions
-
For the blondies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8-inch square pan with cooking spray and line with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, salt and baking powder. In a separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vanilla and eggs. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and pour the mixture into the pan, spreading it out evenly.
-
Bake until the center is set; begin checking for doneness at 35 minutes. Let cool in the pan on a rack for 10 minutes, then remove to the rack and cool completely.
-
For the frosting: Use an electric mixer to beat together the confectioners’ sugar, butter, cocoa powder, heavy cream, vanilla and salt.
-
Spread the frosting on the blondies, top with sprinkles (if desired) and cut into squares. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
