Ingredients

• 0.75 Cups unsalted butter, melted
• 2 Ounces white chocolate, divided
• 1 Cup packed light brown sugar
• 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 Teaspoon lemon zest
• 0.5 Teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 Large egg
• 1 Large egg yolk
• 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 Cups all-purpose flour
• 1 Cup fresh blueberries

For the Lemon Glaze

• 0.67 Cup powdered sugar, sifted
• 4 Teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a 1-inch overhang for easy removal.
2. In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the white chocolate and stir until melted and smooth. Transfer the mixture to a large mixing bowl.
3. Whisk in the brown sugar until smooth, followed by the lemon juice, zest, and salt. Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract, whisking until fully combined.
4. Stir in the flour until just combined. Gently fold in the blueberries using a rubber spatula. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing it into an even layer.
5. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow the blondies to cool in the pan on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes.
6. For the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar and lemon juice in a small bowl until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled blondies.
7. Use the parchment paper overhang to lift the blondies from the pan. Slice into bars and serve. Enjoy!
