What is the difference between a brownie and a blondie?
What is the difference between a brownie and a blondie you ask? The answer is simple and it’s one ingredient. Brownies have cocoa powder and/or chocolate and blondies do not. The rest of the ingredients are typically the same, and in similar proportions. In this recipe for Blondie Bars with Chocolate Chips melted on top, we relocated the chocolate from the base of the recipe to the top of the recipe and it’s perfect!
What does a blondie taste like?
A blondie tastes like a chocolate-less brownie. Except I truly believe that most things are better with chocolate, so that’s why we added the chocolate back in as a frosting on top.

Tips and Tricks for making Blondie Bars
You’ll need melted butter for this recipe. I like to melt butter in the microwave. Cut the butter into 8 pieces, place in a mug and microwave for 30-60 seconds, or until melted.
Pure vanilla extract is an essential ingredient when it comes to baking. Pure vanilla extract can be a bit pricey. Costco generally has the best deal on pure vanilla extract.
