Categories     Cookies and Bars

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 large egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
pinch of salt
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 cup chocolate chips
1/4 cup coconut shreds (sweet or unsweet, your choice)
1/4 cup diced Morello cherries

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°.
  • Line a 9 x 5 x 3 loaf pan with enough parchment paper to overhang the sides and make handles for lifting the blondies out.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the melted butter and brown sugar with a wooden spoon until well blended.
  • Stir in the egg yolk, vanilla, almond extract and salt.
  • Sprinkle the flour and baking powder evenly on top and stir it together.
  • Finally, stir in the chocolate chips, coconut and cherries.
  • Bake for 22-24 minutes. Use a toothpick to test for doneness you don't want the toothpick to come out dry; some moist crumbs clinging is what you're looking for. Immediately lift the blondies out of the pan and allow to cool completely on a wire rack before devouring.
