Instructions
Step-by-Step Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine melted butter and brown sugar. Stir until smooth, then add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing thoroughly. Gradually fold in flour and salt until just combined.
In a separate bowl, mix brown sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter until it resembles wet sand.
Spread the blondie batter evenly in the baking dish and drop spoonfuls of the cinnamon mixture over the top. Use a knife to swirl the cinnamon into the batter.
Bake for 25–30 minutes until edges are golden brown, checking doneness with a toothpick.
Let them cool completely. Meanwhile, beat softened cream cheese until smooth, then add powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract, mixing until creamy.
Drizzle the cream cheese mixture over the cooled blondies. Cut into squares and serve.
Notes
Allow blondies to cool completely before icing for the best results. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
