Irish Coffee Bars Chewy Delicious Blondies Recipes

Steps:

• Make the blondies: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking pan, and line with parchment so that it overhangs on all sides. Butter parchment. Whisk together flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
• Melt butter, and pour into a mixing bowl with brown sugar, ground coffee, and 1 teaspoon salt. Stir to combine. Stir in eggs and vanilla extract. Stir in flour mixture until just combined. Pour batter into pan, and sprinkle with almonds. Bake 27 to 30 minutes, depending on how chewy you like your blondies (a shorter baking time results in a chewier blondie). Let cool completely.
• Make the glaze: Whisk together butter and whiskey. Gradually whisk in confectioners' sugar until glaze is thick but pourable (you may not need all the sugar). Using a spoon or a pastry bag fitted with a plain round tip, drizzle glaze over blondies in a rough crosshatch pattern. Let glaze dry 1 hour. Cut blondies into 2-inch squares.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Butter an 8-inch by 8-inch baking dish or coat well with non-stick cooking spray.
• Add the butter to a large, microwave-safe bowl. Heat at 50% power in 20-second increments just until melted. Whisk in the brown sugar, then stir in the instant espresso granules, egg, vanilla, and salt. Mix well.
• Add the flour and stir just until combined.
• Spoon batter into baking dish - it will be very thick. Using an offset spatula or your clean fingers, press and spread the batter evenly into the pan.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until set in the middle and the edges appear dry and slightly golden.
• Remove from oven and allow to cool for 1 hour.
• Make the icing. In the bowl of a stand mixer afixed with the whisk attachment or in a medium bowl with a hand mixer, beat the butter until pale, about one minute. Add the powdered sugar and blend at low speed until the butter and sugar begin to combine. Drizzle in the irish cream. Add the milk, a little at a time, until you reach a creamy, spreadable consistency. Add the salt and combine well.
• Spread the icing evenly over the blondies. Cut into 16 squares and remove with a cookie spatula.
• Blondies keep at room temperature in an airtight container for 3 days.
