Pecan Praline Blondies

Even if you aren’t a Southerner, you probably know what pralines are – those crisp, buttery, melt-in-your-mouth candies filled with crunchy pecans. Get that same flavor here in these addictively irresistible Pecan Praline Blondies!

So I’ve only ever had true, authentic Georgian pralines once. And it was like, the best thing ever of my LIFE.…And I found them in the gift shop at the Atlanta airport when I had a layover there. #truth

I mean, what else do you do when you’re stranded in a Georgia airport besides read trashy gossip magazines and drink a jumbo-sized Coke Zero? Exactly.

Ingredients

FOR BLONDIES:

• 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
• 2 cups brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
• ½ tsp salt
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 2 cups all-purpose flour

FOR PRALINE ICING:

• ½ cup (1 stick) butter
• 1 cup brown sugar
• ⅓ cup heavy cream
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 13x9" baking pan with foil, extending the sides of the foil over the edges of the pan. Spray the foil with cooking spray and set aside.
2. To make the blondies: In a medium/large sauce pot, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Stir in the brown sugar until combined. Let cool for about 5-10 minutes. After it's cooled off a little, whisk in the eggs and the vanilla until combined. Lastly, whisk in the salt, baking powder and flour until a soft batter forms.
3. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread into an even layer. Bake for approx. 19-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool completely.
