Categories     Bars & Blondies

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), melted
1 large egg
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon McCormick Pure Vanilla Extract
1/2 teaspoon McCormick Ground Cinnamon
1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup dried cranberries (I used orange-scented cranberries from Trader Joe's)
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil, spray with cooking spray; set aside.
  • In a large, microwave-safe bowl melt the butter, about 1 minute on high power.
  • Wait momentarily before adding the egg so you don't scramble it. Add the egg, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and whisk until smooth.
  • Add the flour and stir until just combined, don't overmix.
  • Stir in the cranberries and chocolate chips.
  • Turn batter out into prepared pan, smoothing the top lightly with a spatula.
  • Bake for about 24 to 26 minutes, or until done (I baked 24 minutes because I prefer very soft blondies). A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean (as long as you're not hitting chocolate), or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter.
  • Allow blondies to cool in pan for at least 1 hour before slicing and serving.
