What’s the Difference Between a Brownie and a Blondie?
Everyone has a favorite type of brownie. Some people prefer them dense and fudgy, while others like a cakey, airy texture. Brownies are the perfect base for any topping or frosting imaginable. The same can be said about blondies! They can be dense and chewy or light and fluffy with nuts on top.
I first had blondies when I went to Ireland and tasted an authentic version of this recipe. They’re like brownies, but without cocoa powder added in! The flavor is very buttery with just enough sweetness from the sugar mixed with some chocolate chips for good measure, too–it makes them taste even more deep dish cookie-like than before you add that extra ingredient (namely: chocolate).

- Use a thinner pan than you use in your oven, this way the entire batch of blondies bakes up perfectly.

- If you are baking in an air fryer oven, make sure to put the pan on the lowest shelf. This way both the outside and inside will bake up perfectly.
What Can I Add To Blondies?
These best blondies are so rich and fluffy that I’m not sure they could ever get any better. But if you want to take them over the top, add some nuts like chopped walnuts or pecans for an added depth of flavor!
Which Peanut Butter is Best for Blondies?
You can use any peanut butter that you have on hand, whether it’s homemade, natural, or store-bought.
I have used Jif, Skippy, Costco Brand, and even the Trader Joe’s brand in this recipe over the years, and they all have worked well.
