Lemon Kit Kat Blondies

I am a huge Kit Kat fan, but growing up I really didn’t like them! I thought they were too “airy” and much preferred a Milky Way. Now, they’ve become one of my go-to candies. I love how creative they’re getting with the flavors too. This lemon version was fantastic- vanilla with a light lemon taste. When they’re baked into these blondies they give it a sweet chewy texture. I left the base pretty standard so you can easily swap your favorite, or seasonal, Kit Kat flavor.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

• 2 cups all purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp cornstarch
• 1 1/2 sticks of butter, unsalted
• 1 cup of granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tsp vanilla
• 1 cup chopped Lemon Kit Kats

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9″ pan with baking spray. Add parchment paper as well so that it’s easier to take it out of the pan.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. 
3. In another bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Use a stand mixer with a paddle attachment or a hand mixer. 
4. Add the vanilla and then the eggs one at a time and beat until incorporated. 
5. Mix in the dry ingredients and beat until just combined. 
6. Fold in the Kit Kats. The Kit Kats will wind up having a chewy texture rather than crunchy with a light lemon flavor. Press the batter into the prepared pan. 
7. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Let them cool completely and then refrigerate for at least an hour. *Putting brownies or blondies in the fridge will give them a chewier/fudgier texture. 
8. Remove from the fridge and cut into bars. Eat right away or wait until they’re room temp.
