Now, don't get me wrong, I love brownies as much as the next person. But sometimes you want a change. Enter blondies: soft, chewy, a little less rich but completely satisfying nonetheless. These particular blondies are chock full of toasted walnuts, unsweetened coconut, and melty white chocolate.
1 cup walnuts
1.5 cups unsweetened, grated coconut
12 tablespoons unsalted butter (6 ounces)
1.5 cups unbleached all-purpose flour (7.5 ounces)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1.5 cups dark brown sugar (10.5 ounces)
2 extra large eggs
4 teaspoons vanilla extract
6 ounces white chocolate
