Cashew Blondies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking pan, and line with parchment paper. Butter and flour parchment paper.
• Cook butter in a saucepan over medium heat until it turns golden-brown; remove from heat, transfer to a large bowl and let cool. Add sugars and stir until combined. Add eggs and vanilla; beat to combine. Add flour, baking powder, salt, cashews, and coconut. Mix until thoroughly combined, and transfer to prepared pan.
• Bake until a cake tester inserted in the center just comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes (do not over bake). Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before turning out of pan onto a cutting board. Peel off parchment paper; cut blondies into 3-inch squares.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Line 13x9-inch pan with foil, extending foil 1 inch over 2 opposite sides of pan; spray foil with cooking spray.
• In large bowl, beat brown sugar and butter with electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Beat in 1 teaspoon of the vanilla and the eggs until well blended. Stir in flour, baking powder and salt until blended. Spread in pan. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until set.
• Meanwhile, in 2-quart saucepan, melt caramels with whipping cream over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until melted and smooth. Stir in remaining 1 teaspoon vanilla and the cashews. Pour evenly over bars. Cool completely in pan on cooling rack, about 3 hours. Use foil to lift out of pan. Cut into 6 rows by 4 rows.
