Starting baking can feel a little overwhelming at first. There are so many recipes, techniques, and little details that can make you wonder if you are doing it “right.” The truth is — baking does not have to be complicated.

This is one of those cakes that looks a little bit special, but is actually so simple to make and is one of my absolute favourites.

Blondies are one of those bakes that feel a little bit special, but are so easy to make. Think of them as the lighter, caramel-like cousin of brownies, soft in the centre, slightly chewy on the edges and full of chocolate in every bite.

Baking is one of those things that looks simple, but small details can make a big difference. If you have ever had a cake turn out too dense, brownies too dry, or something just not quite right.... you are not alone.
