Easy blondies are filled with loads of Cookie Butter (or Biscoff Spread) and milk chocolate chips then a generous sprinkle of Sea Salt. These Cookie Butter Sea Salt CC Blondies are sweet and salty- the perfect afternoon treat or homemade cookie present!
At the beginning of the year, I made these Cookie Butter Sea Salt Chocolate Chip Cookies and they were deeeeelicious. Loved every single bite, I ate half the batch myself. And since then I have made them a few times, still eating half the batch!
You know where I am going, you saw the title, I made them into blondies. Because blondies are easy and I LO LO LO LO VE them.. just like the Ashlee Simpson song. And these are probably one of my most favorite blondies ever so chewy, moist, chocolatey, sweet but salty, cookie butter-y, basically, I fell in love at first bite.
Not going to lie that happens a lot with me and food but for now these are my new favorite!! Can't wait to make them again- I only shared them at one location of my work so maybe I need to make them again o share at the other? Excuses... LOL
How do you make blondies?
The beauty of blondies is how easy they are. One bowl. I hate dishes, so blondies often win in my house!
Start by preheating your oven to 350F and line a 9X9 inch pan with foil so that the foil overhangs on the sides- this makes it easier to pull out later. Also, spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray.
Then in a large bowl combine your melted butter- you could use a large microwave safe bowl and melt the butter right in that bowl or just melt the butter in a small saucepan. To your butter add your granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract. Then whisk in your egg, then cookie butter.
Add your baking soda, salt, and flour, mixing until just combined. Fold in chocolate chunks. The batter will be thick, press it evenly into the prepared pan. Then sprinkle more sea salt on top.
Bake for 22- 25 minutes until set and golden brown. Let cool for 30 minutes then with foil lift out of the pan. Slice and seve!
My sister fell in LOVE with these as well, she had some at home and when she saw I took them to work she came in and grabbed a bunch and hid them from the other staff for her secret stash... that must say something right?!
Look at all the chocolate oozing out? How someone doesn't feel joy and happiness looking at that is beyond me!!!
BTW I naturally had one a la mode because.. well YOLO! ( I live by that all too often LOL) It was a great decision when you make these grab some ice cream...just do it!!

I've made these before and loved them. So when I saw that Trader Joe's now sells Pumpkin Spice Cookie Butter I knew exactly what I had to do! I just made this recipe with the Pumpkin Cookie Butter last night and they were delicious! Definitely going to make another batch soon (and going to blog about it soon, too!)
