ALMOST-FAMOUS MAPLE-BUTTER BLONDIES



Almost-Famous Maple-Butter Blondies image

When two brothers opened the first Applebee's in 1980, they gave it the clunky name T.J. Applebee's Rx for Edibles & Elixirs. The name changed six years later, but the chain's insanely popular Maple-Butter Blondies didn't come along until 2004. They're made with walnuts and white chocolate and served in a sizzling skillet with ice cream and maple-butter sauce. Applebee's sells about 2.5 million of the sundaes every year, and readers like Julie Thornton of Dover, PA, have been begging us to track down the recipe. The eatery's Kansas headquarters refused to reveal it, so Food Network Kitchens engineered this spot-on imitation.

Time 55m

Yield 9 blondies

Number Of Ingredients 15

10 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for the pan
1 cup walnut pieces
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar
3 large eggs
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
6 ounces white chocolate, cut into chunks
1/3 cup maple syrup
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup heavy cream
Vanilla ice cream, for serving
1/2 cup walnut pieces

Steps:

  • Make the blondies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with foil, leaving an overhang on two sides; butter the foil. Pulse 1/2 cup walnuts in a food processor until almost fine (do not overprocess). Whisk the ground nuts, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Beat 10 tablespoons butter and the brown sugar with a mixer on medium speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the bowl with a rubber spatula. Beat in the vanilla. Gradually beat in the dry ingredients until just combined. Fold in the white chocolate and the remaining 1/2 cup walnuts.
  • Spread the batter in the prepared pan and bake until the blondies are light brown around the edges and spring back when pressed, about 30 minutes. Cool slightly on a rack.
  • Meanwhile, make the topping: Place the maple syrup and butter in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook until the mixture bubbles and thickens, swirling the pan, about 6 minutes. Add the cream and continue to cook until the mixture is the consistency of caramel.
  • Use the foil to lift the blondies out of the pan, then cut into large bars. Serve warm topped with ice cream, the maple-butter sauce and the walnuts.

Ingredients

To create a perfect copycat Applebee's Maple Butter Blondie, you need to use the right ingredients. Some of the necessary ingredients are brown sugar, flour, baking powder, butter, vanilla extract, eggs, maple syrup, and chopped walnuts. It is crucial to measure the ingredients accurately, as even a slight difference in the amounts can affect the final result.

Baking Time and Temperature

To achieve the perfect consistency, you need to bake the Maple Butter Blondie at the right temperature and for the right amount of time. Therefore, it is critical to preheat the oven and ensure it reaches the desired temperature before placing the pan inside.

Mixing the Batter

Once the butter and sugar are creamed, add the eggs one by one, beating well after each addition. Sift the dry ingredients and mix them together before gradually adding them to the butter mixture. Finally, fold the chopped walnuts into the batter.

Using the Right Pan

The right equipment is crucial for achieving the perfect Maple Butter Blondie. A 9x9 inch square baking pan is an ideal size for this recipe. It is crucial to line the pan with parchment paper or grease it to prevent the blondie from sticking to the pan.

Maple Butter Sauce

The Maple Butter Blondie is incomplete without the delicious maple butter sauce. To make the perfect maple butter sauce, you will need butter, maple syrup, and heavy whipping cream. Melt the butter in a saucepan, then add the maple syrup and cream. Mix well and let it simmer for a few minutes until the sauce thickens. Do not overcook the sauce as it will become too thick.

Assembly

Once the Maple Butter Blondie is baked and cooled, cut it into squares and top it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Drizzle the maple butter sauce over the top of the ice cream and the blondie. Serve immediately.
