Ingredients Needed For Our Snickerdoodle Blondies Recipe:

  • Flour
  • Baking powder
  • Brown sugar
  • Salted butter
  • Egg
  • Vanilla extract
  • Cinnamon
  • Granulated sugar

How To Make Our Snickerdoodle Blondies Recipe:

Begin by preheating the oven to 350 degrees.

Then, using either a large mixing bowl and hand mixer, or a stand mixer, cream together the room temperature butter, eggs, brown sugar, and vanilla extract.

Once those are completely combined and smooth, add in the flour and baking powder.

Continue mixing until everything is well combined. This will be a thicker batter, almost like a cookie dough rather than a brownie texture.

After all the ingredients are combined, grease a 9×13 inch baking pan and then pour all of the batter into the pan.

Since it is thick you will have to press it out into the full length of the pan.

Now, combine the white sugar and ground cinnamon to make the cinnamon topping for the snickerdoodle blondies.

When you have those two mixed together, sprinkle it over top of the whole pan as evenly as you can.

After the topping is done being added, place the pan in the oven and bake it at 350 for 25-30 minutes, or untilt the top springs back when pressed upon.

Once the blondies cool down, they will harden up and create the cookie brownie texture you will love!

Why Do We Use Brown Sugar?

Brown sugar and granulated sugar are not exactly the same. While you can use brown sugar in place of granulated sugar, it will not provide the exact same result.

The brown sugar produces a more intense flavor and will darken what you are baking more than it would have using granulated sugar. We use the brown sugar in this recipe to play up the great flavor and produce an even softer and moist blondie.

  7. Rose says:

    I made these blondies last night, following the recipe and instructions exactly. You were right about the batter being thick, it took patience to spread it out into the pan. I baked the bars for 26 minutes and, after cooling, the bars had a perfect cookie-like texture. Brought them into work this morning and all the co-workers are enjoying them. A sweet treat on a wintery day in the mid-west. Thank you for sharing!

  8. Susan B says:

    I have made these 3 times in the past 2 weeks at my kids' request. They are chewy and soft and delicious! thank you for the recipe!!

  9. Meggan says:

    I made these last night. They were really yummy. However, I made an adjustment. I wanted to frost them so I put two heaping teaspoons of cinnamon right in the batter and didn't sprinkle any on top. I made cream cheese frosting and frosted them once they cooled. They were fantastic! Great, easy recipe.

  10. Carly says:

    I made these yesterday. They were great! Chewy, moist, and tasted fantastic!

  11. Jennifer Angel says:

    These were AMAZING! I messed up the first batch and put white sugar in along with the brown sugar and it came out gooey. Super gooey. So I tried it again (after I put my glasses on) and they came out perfect! I have a neighbor from a 2 miles away coming by to pick some up...they are that GOOD!

  12. Katie Shelton says:

    I made this for my husband and it was amazing!!!! :)

  13. Brittany says:

    I made these on Saturday for a thanksgiving dinner and am making now for two more dinners tomorrow! These are great, I was very impressed with how moist they are!! And super easy to make.

  14. Cara says:

    Oh my! I just made these to take to an Easter party tomorrow. They are unbelievable! Like warm and cozy bites of Heaven!

  15. Maria says:

    I just made these, except I melted the butter with white chocolate over a double boiler. So delicious! I made them for my brother's 18th birthday and I know he'll love them. Thank you for the recipe!

  16. Cyd says:

    Thanks for your sweet comment Maria!! Happy 18th Birthday to your brother! Have a great week!

  17. Kim says:

    Directions said grease a dish not baking pan. Mine did not cook. :-(

  18. Cyd says:

    Sorry about that confusion Kim. A 9 x 13 inch dish is a 9 x 13 inch pan. Blondies need to be made in a pan with sides. I made changes to the recipe post so no one else would be confused about that term.

  19. Jenifer says:

    Just to clarify, please: sheet pan or Pyrex? Thanks!

  20. Cyd says:

    We baked these in a 9 x 13 inch glass pan.

  21. Haley N says:

    These are soooo good!!! Definitely a recipes worth saving!! Thank you!! ?

  22. Debbie Six says:

    I’ve been browsing recipes all evening and this is the recipe that made me jump out of my chair and get to my kitchen! I used my food processor to combine all the ingredients and enjoyed spreading the dough into my glass Pyrex pan. I only had unsalted butter so I added 1/2 tsp salt to the flour mixture. I’m awaiting them to finish baking now- waiting for them to cool is always the hardest part! I want to taste them at every stage - fresh out the oven, cooled, and next day 😂 I love that this recipe came from “six sisters “ I have three sisters and our last name is Six, so people often referred to us as the “Six sisters” growing up. There were six siblings when you count me and my two brothers. Anytime I find a six sister recipe I tend to want to make it- it’s like they “know” what I like to make in my kitchen! Well, timer just beeped...time to check the snickerdoodle bars!

  23. Cyd says:

    Hi Debbie! You are the cutest lady ever!!! We love that you and your sisters are the "Six" sisters. We'll adopt all of you!! Thanks for stopping by and hoping you love the Easy Snickerdoodle Blondies. I can smell them now!! YUM! Have a terrific week.

  24. Haileigh says:

    Disappointing and dry ...

  25. Justine says:

    Where’s the cream of tartar that give snickerdoodles their signature taste?

Snickerdoodle Blondies Recipe (2024)

FAQs

Are blondies meant to be gooey in the middle? ›

A good blondie should be chewy, gooey in the middle and firm around the edges. If you want to add an additional egg yolk to this recipe to make the blondies super gooey, you can! Just to clarify, that would be 1 whole egg plus 2 egg yolks. Try it if you like gooey blondies!

What makes a blondie different from a brownie? ›

Blondies use vanilla extract and brown sugar instead of cocoa powder to get their flavor, while brownies use chocolate and cocoa. Plus, brownies usually include white sugar instead of brown sugar. So, now that you know the differences between brownies and blondies, it's time to try your hand at your own brownie recipe.

Why are my blondies soggy? ›

Over mixing the eggs: If you over mix the eggs, that can incorporate more air into the batter and cause them to sink. Underbaking the bars: Pulling the blondies out of the oven before the center has had time to bake through can also cause them to sink in the middle. Try baking them for a couple extra minutes next time!

How to stop blondies from going cakey? ›

Don't Overbake Blondies!

These blondies are meant to be a little gooey and soft. You can remove them from the oven just before they look like they're completely done because the residual heat of the oven and the pan will continue to cook them. Also, be sure your oven is actually at the temperature it says it is.

Can you eat undercooked blondies? ›

So if your blondies are very wet, then they're most likely undercooked. In the UK, eggs with the Red Lion seal of approval are safe to eat raw or undercooked. So you can slightly undercook blondies and brownies if you prefer a fudgier texture.

What is a substitute for cream of tartar in snickerdoodles? ›

You can either replace cream of tartar with baking powder at a 1:1.5 ratio (1 teaspoon cream of tartar : 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder), or you can replace cream of tartar with the combination of baking soda and either lemon juice or vinegar (as with this recipe).

Why are my snickerdoodles so soft? ›

Slightly under-baking the snickerdoodles also guarantees a softer cookie. Take them out of the oven after about 10-11 minutes. This will keep the interior of the cookie soft and chewy.

Why do my snickerdoodle cookies go flat? ›

If your cookies repeatedly turn out flat, no matter the recipe, chances are your oven is too hot. Here's what's happening. The butter melts super quickly in a too-hot oven before the other ingredients have firmed up into a cookie structure. Therefore, as the butter spreads so does the whole liquidy cookie.

How to tell if a blondie is done? ›

Brownies and Blondies

The toothpick test should produce a few errant crumbs stuck to the tester but not a smooth smear of batter. The edges will feel firm to the touch (not just set but actually kind of firm and crispy) and the surface will feel soft when pressed but will not spring back.

What pan is best for blondies? ›

My ideal blondies are just a touch gooey in the center but cooked through. These experiments have continued to reaffirm my recommendation to BAKE IN METAL PANS, at least for blondies, brownies, and quick breads. Glass often leads to the center being undercooked by the time the edges start to dry out. ⁠

Why aren't my blondies chewy? ›

Replacing a portion of the brown sugar with corn syrup ensures that the blondies stay chewy but aren't overly sweet. Buttery pecans and milk chocolate chips balance the blondies' flavor without obscuring it. Flaky salt on top makes for a crunchy flavor contrast.

How do I know if my blondies are cooked? ›

Check if the blondies are cooked by giving the tin a gentle shake, they should be mostly set but a little bit of a wobble in the centre is fine. Cool completely in the tin – the blondies will sink in the middle as they cool, just like brownies.

Is it normal for brownies to be gooey in the middle? ›

If the brownies still look wet or aren't pulling away, they aren't done. Even fudgy brownies will pull from the edges once they've finished baking. You'll see that the edges look dry while the middle still looks soft or slightly wet. Chewy and cakey brownies will have dry edges with firmer-looking centers.

Should blondies be wobbly? ›

Bake in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes, they should have risen slightly and there should be a slight wobble in the mixture – you can insert a skewer to check if they are done: if it comes out clean they are done, but if you prefer more gooey blondies remove from the oven sooner.

What should brownies look like in the middle? ›

Brownie doneness indicator #2: Appearance

The brownie's top should have a dry-looking sheen. At the edge of the pan, the brownies should be slightly puffed, and in the middle of the pan, the brownies should be set, and not wobbly.
