Some of these recipes have nuts, caramels, chocolate chips, and chocolate candies, with and without frosting. You can believe they all are fantastically good! You may even decide you like blondies better than brownies.

What are blondies?

Blondies have some of the same characteristics as brownies. They are dense, moist dessert bars. They are both made with flour, sugar, butter, and eggs. However, blondies do not contain cocoa. Brownies do. Blondies are ‘vanilla’ based and have brown sugar instead of cocoa. When cooked brown sugar gives them an almost butterscotch or caramel flavor not a chocolate flavor like brownies.

Blondies come in as many different variations as brownies. They have chips, nuts, and frosting.

Blondies are also easy to make, require few ingredients, and can be made in one pan and without a mixer.

If you’re not a fan of Blondies, I hope these recipes, 10 Blondies Recipes that are Better than Brownies, will change your mind.

Baking Essentials

Below are the basics you’ll need for baking. With these tools, you can pretty much bake whatever you want.

To be truly complete, you probably want more baking pans in addition to the 9×13-inch cake pan I have featured. I recommend getting

1. Loaf pans
2. Two or three round 8-inch cake pans
3. Cheesecake pan (if you think you’ll ever make a cheesecake)
4. Cupcake liners
5. Parchment paper
6. Rolling pin
7. Cookie or biscuit cutter (basic round cutter will also work for donuts)
8. Measuring spoons and measuring cups for dry and liquid measuring cups. (I can’t believe I forgot them in the photo!)
