FAQs
Can I use granulated sugar instead of brown sugar?
While you can substitute granulated sugar, the blondies will be less moist and may lack the rich flavor that brown sugar provides.
Can I make these blondies ahead of time?
Yes, you can make them a day ahead. Just store them in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
What can I do if my blondies are too dry?
If your blondies turn out dry, try reducing the baking time next time or adding a bit more melted butter for moisture.
