Blondies

  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 4 oz unsalted butter melted and cooled to room temperature
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sweetened flaked coconut
  • 1 cup chocolate chips or chunks

Topping:

  • 1 cup semisweet or milk chocolate chips
  • 1 tsp butter

Preheat over to 350. Grease and flour a 8x8 square pan (or line with parchment paper…this stuff works marvelous wonders).

Combine flour and salt; set aside. Stir together melted butter and brown sugar until smooth; beat in egg and vanilla extract until well blended. Slowly beat in the flour mixture until blended, then stir in the coconut and chocolate chips. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth even with a rubber spatula. Bake for 25-30min, or until set in the center but still soft. Do no over bake. Let the bars cool slightly before drizzling with chocolate, then cool completely before cutting into squares.

For the topping combine the chocolate and butter in a small bowl and microwave in 30second intervals until melted and smooth. Using a spoon drizzle over the bars.
