  • Cook Time:25 minutes
  • Total Time:35 minutes

Ingredients

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly

3/4 cup Peanut Butter & Co. White Chocolatey Wonderful

2 large eggs

1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 (4 ounces) 60% cacao chocolate bar, chopped into chunks

1 cup honey roasted peanuts

1 1/4 cups small pretzels, crushed but not completely smashed

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.

  2. Melt the butter in a large bowl and let it cool slightly. Stir in the Peanut Butter & Co. White Chocolatey Wonderful, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Stir in the flour and salt, and then stir in the chopped chocolate and half of the chopped peanuts.

  3. Spread the batter evenly into a glass 9X9-inch baking dish. (Alternatively, you can use a metal pan; if you do so, start checking for doneness after 18 minutes of baking because the blondies will cook faster). Optionally, you can line the baking dish with parchment paper first. 

  4. Sprinkle on the crushed pretzels, lightly pressing them into the top, and then sprinkle on the peanuts, lightly pressing them into the top as well. If your pretzels are unsalted, sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon coarse kosher or sea salt evenly on top. (The salt gives a nice balance to the sweet ingredients in this dish.) 

  5. Bake until the blondies are golden along the edges and set in the middle, about 25 minutes. Cool completely before cutting.
