Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.75 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup white chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup chopped macadamia nuts
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (to be added when baking)
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted (to be added when baking)
- 2 pieces large eggs (to be added when baking)
Directions
Step 1
In a clean 1-quart canning jar, layer the ingredients in the following order: flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, brown sugar, granulated sugar, white chocolate chips, and macadamia nuts. Gently press down each layer to ensure everything fits snugly in the jar without mixing layers.
Step 2
Seal the jar with a tight lid and attach a tag or label with the following baking instructions: ‘Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour an 8x8-inch baking pan. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter, and 2 large eggs. Stir in the contents of this jar until just combined. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.’
Step 3
Tell your gift recipient to: ‘Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let cool in the pan before cutting into bars.’
Step 4
Store the baked blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or refrigerate to extend their shelf life.
