Four Roses Bourbon Brown Butter Chocolate Chunk Blondies Recipe
When Four Roses invited me to make some Bourbon Chocolate Chunk Blondies using their Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, I jumped at the chance as whiskey and baking are probably my 2 drugs of choice! I've always wanted to bake with booze, namely bourbon, but was always a bit intimidated by the thought.After altering their recipe with brown butter and more bourbon...I knew I had a winner! This recipe bakes up like a big chocolate chunk cookie— if you're craving cookies but don't want to do as much work, try this recipe out! The brown butter adds a nice nuttiness, and bourbon adds the subtle notes that hit your nose when tasting whiskey— in Four Roses, it's a lot of fruity floral notes with a light honey spice.
Bourbon Brown Butter Chocolate Chunk Blondies
This blondie recipe is like a traditional chocolate chip cookie in pan form, made even better with brown butter and bourbon!
1/2 Cup Unsalted Butter
1 Cup All Purpose Flour
1/4 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Baking Powder
1 Cup Brown Sugar (packed)
1/2 Cup Chocolate Chunks ((save some to garnish))
1 Egg (large)
1/4 Cup Four Roses Bourbon
Preheat oven to 350℉. Prepare an 8x8 pan with cooking spray and parchment paper.
In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk until foamy and browned with a nutty aroma. Whisk frequently, making sure not to burn. Once browned, remove from heat and transfer browned butter to a bowl to cool (don't forget to keep all of those brown bits in the mix!).
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Add in brown butter & egg, whisking thoroughly to fully combine.
Fold in chocolate chunks and scoop into greased and lined 8x8 pan. Top the blondies with some more chocolate chunks and bake for 20-25 minutes.
The end result is a tasty, chewy bite that is not too sweet at all— the brown butter elevates the overall flavor, and the semi-sweet chocolate chunks feel a bit fancier than your traditional chocolate chip. Try this recipe out next time you have a hankering for something sweet!**This post contains products I’ve received for free and – for more information, please read my Disclosure Policy**
