Ingredients

Caramel

  • Cup Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 3 Tablespoons Light Corn Syrup
  • Cup Light Brown Sugar
  • 1 Pinch Salt
  • 2-½ Tablespoons All Purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Blondies

  • Cup All Purpose Flour
  • ½ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • ¾ Cup Light Brown Sugar
  • 11 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter softened
  • 2 Each Large Eggs
  • 1-½ Tablespoons Light Corn Syrup
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • ¾ Cup Pecans optional

Instructions

Caramel

  • Add the heavy cream, light corn syrup, brown sugar and salt to a saucepan and bring to a slow boil. Use a candy thermometer to bring the mixture up to 230°F.
    ⅔ Cup Heavy Whipping Cream, 3 Tablespoons Light Corn Syrup, ⅔ Cup Light Brown Sugar, 1 Pinch Salt
  • Turn off the heat and stir in the vanilla and flour. Stir until smooth.
    ⅓ Cup All Purpose Flour, 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Blondies

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Spray an 8x8" baking pan with cooking spray. Line with foil, with about 2" overhang to be able to lift out the blondies after baking. Spray the foil.
  • To a medium mixing bowl, add the flour, baking powder and salt and mix together with a whisk or fork. Set aside.
    2-½ Tablespoons All Purpose Flour, ½ teaspoon Baking Powder, ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • Add the butter and brown sugar to a stand mixer and beat for about 5 minutes with the whip attachment, until fluffy.
    11 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, ¾ Cup Light Brown Sugar
  • Add the eggs, one at a time. Then add the corn syrup and vanilla.
    2 Each Large Eggs, 1-½ Tablespoons Light Corn Syrup, 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • Add the flour mixture and mix until combined, scrape down the sides with a spatula then beat again.
  • Pour ⅔ of the batter into the prepared 8x8" baking pan. Smooth the batter to all corners.
  • Reheat the caramel then pour over the top of the batter in the pan.
  • Spoon the remaining batter over the top, then using a spatula or a knife make some swirl patterns through the batter and caramel.
  • Add to the oven and bake for about 25 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to rest for about 30 minutes before lifting out of the pan using the foil sides. Allow to cool completely on a rack before removing the foil and slicing into 9 squares.

Notes

Don't heat much more than 230°F or the caramel will be too firm, more hard and toffee like.
