I really love this blondie recipe. I saw the photo for it on Tastespotting, followed it over to The Delicious Life, and made the original recipe which was a very yummy Heath Bar Blondies. Sarah is right in that this is the easiest dessert.
The Heath Bar Blondies went so fast I didn’t get to take any photos. (Monica, I stink!) Because they were so good I had no problems baking a second batch a day or two later so I could photos to share with you. I did though decide to shake things up a bit. The photos you see here are of the second batch made with Ghirardelli white chocolate chips and (half ) topped with macadamia nuts. Next time the whole thing gets nuts!
Heath Bar Blondies Recipe
Preheat oven to 350. Grease 9×9 baking pan. (You can use an 8×8; the blondies will just be slightly taller.)
Into a large mixing bowl, sift together: 1 c. all-purpose flour, ½ tsp baking powder, 1/8 tsp baking soda, and ½ tsp salt (I used coarse sea salt. For the second batch I wasn’t as careful to measure a 1/2 tsp which meant I added a granule or two more).
In a large bowl, beat together 1 c brown sugar with 1 stick melted butter. Add 1 large egg and ¼ tsp vanilla.
Stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture along with 1 c. coarsely chopped Heath bars. (I used Heath baking pieces with the first batch & then white chocolate chips for the second. On the second batch I also topped half the pan with a handful of chopped macadamia nuts.) Pour batter into pan.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool (if you have the patience, I didn’t which is why you see a missing piece!) before cutting into squares.
I know I posted a lot of photos but I couldn’t help it. I just LOVED these blondies. They were also delish nuked for about 1o seconds and topped with vanilla ice cream. :)

Not enough pictures IMHO. But you know me, the more the better! I think your photos are fantastic Ingrid. The first and second are my faves! I bet your white chocolate version was tasty.
MMMM!
BTW, I read on a comment you left on Smitten Sugar's blog that the twins' birthday was today...Happy birthday to them!
PS. I don't think you stink :-)
I always tend to add more salt in my blondies... Those look particularly scrumptious and gooey!
Cheers,
Rosa
Ingrid you are the blondie queen!! I took your advice and tried the snickerdoodle ones.. Instant fans here! These sound fantastic also. Your pics are just lovely!!
Awesome! I love Heath bars and they would be great in blondies! Also, sea salt is the way to go! I use it in my chocolate chip cookies too and it adds that extra little something. These look great!
I love blondies, but I never make them. Given the rave reviews here maybe I'll have to try these. They look so scrumptious, Ingrid!
ps Sundays with Dorie is returning next week! :)
you did submit this to TasteSpotting, right? :D
These look super tasty... believe me, if they were at my place I'd be eating them for breakfast right now.
Also, I gotta say, your photos are great- have you switched something up??
I knew I was gonna like these just by reading the title. Salted!! Yes, baby!
I've been wondering what to make for book club tomorrow night and now I know. Thanks! I'll let ya know how they turn out.

these look fantastic! i love blondies and w/ a little salt, yum...
oh ingrid. that dense, moist texture looks perfect! of all the blondies i've ever seen, i'm not exaggerating when i say these are the most appealing. keeper!
Gulp. Salted BLONDIES?? I've never thought of doing that! But now I want some.
These looks so scrumptious! The way you described the hint of salt just made my mouth water. And I bet they would be really good with PB cups.
these look really really really good! Gosh I'm hungry :(
Oh my..they look soooo yummy and moist AND chewy
Great pictures Ingrid! I have to try these, I've yet to use sea salt in anything. I need to try that too!
omg I am so going to make so many stuff from your blog once I get my butt back to Hawaii and have my own kitchen back!
Oh man I HAVE to make this for Jack. He LOVES heath bar anything, and these blondies would be a HUGE hit!
I think your pictures are awesome! These look fantastic. I have never made anything with heath bar but I bet these are yum...you know how I love my blondies :)
Happy Belated to the twins!
Just thinking about those with the sprinkle of salt on them is making my mouth water!!!
OK, as I told you, the mini cheesecakes rocked, but once I saw salted, heath bar blondies, I had to bookmark and comment. God knows how many 'Ingrid' bookmarks I have. Made the peanut butter-chocolate ganache, but not the brownies, as my friend Denis and I ate the bowl of it with a spoon!! Crazy, but so worth it :)
Oh! Yum! *licks lips* these look Delicious!!

I love blondies. Those look wonderful. YUM.
I guarantee that Grumpy would love these bars. This would be right up his alley! Um, probably right up mine too...maybe too much so!
Okay ~ holy cow. These came out of the oven 15 mins. ago and that's all the longer I could take it before cutting into them. Great, great, great! I love the salted flavor of them. So tasty! I tried the butterscotch chips, though I think I would have liked it better w/ the pb cups. Next time!
Boys' bday? Can't wait to see what treats they asked for!

I love blondies!
This may be sacrilege, but I think I love blondies even more than brownies - I know, right! And I'm also a total convert to salting, um, everything... sounds so good!
I remember trying some brownies from Trader Joes that had a crust of salt on the top. I thought it sounded so weird, but the salt made them taste so sweet and gooey! I bet these are even better. Plus they're beautiful!
I saw those on TS and thought of you. You are the bar woman in my mind! Eh, bar, as in, dessert.
I love blondies! I think heath bar AND white chocolate chips would be good too :)
I have to get me some of those blondies!!!
Bookmarked! I love salty and sweet - they look terrific.
For all the baking we do, we've never baked blondies. The pics look great and very tempting!
Bookmarked :)
Sorry, we've been away. I will catch up on the kids' games soon!
Oh me, oh my! Those look amazing!
Can you believe I have never made a Blondie. But I believe this could be the recipe that sends me over that edge. Now the question is, toffee bits or white chocolate and mac nuts?
(You've been busy! I'm trying to catch up on posts here!)
These look AWESOME. Heath is my fave candy bar - always has been. And I adore ANYTHING with salt (watermelon, anyone?) But it's bad for the BP so I have to take it easy. But I could make these and share them with co-workers.
These look so moist! I like the idea of the sea salt like you said. I think that little bites of salt in there would be a real treat, love the mac nuts too!
It's been taking me awhile to get around to blogs - and everything you've been making looks SOO good! I think these would be a favorite for me!
These look awesome! The Boy loves blondies, so maybe I'll whip these up this weekend. Also, I too was surprised at how right everyone was about the touch of sea salt! I'll be sure and not forget that.
Ooh! I just made these, SOO GOOD!! I posted it on my blog.
Thanks for sharing! They were a big hit over here.
