Cinnamon Roll Blondies

Just a quick word on these Cinnamon Roll Blondies, since this is probably the whole reason you’re here.

If you need a quick dessert recipe to take to a potluck or party, these will be a hit, and they’re a little more unique than your average brownie or chocolate chip cookie bar.

They stir up and bake quickly, look pretty with the vanilla glaze drizzle and are soft, chewy and full of cinnamon flavor.

How’s that for a 30 second elevator pitch for these bars? Still working on perfecting it. Maybe this image will help.

Cinnamon Roll Blondies Recipe

1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet and stir until combined.
2. Spread the 2/3 of the batter in a greased 9 x 13 inch baking dish. To make the cinnamon layer, stir together the sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle the cinnamon mixture on top of the batter in the pan. Drop the remaining batter in teaspoon sized amounts over the cinnamon sugar mixture.
3. Bake at 350 F for 20-24 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool completely.
4. To make the glaze, combine the powdered sugar, vanilla, and enough milk to make a smooth consistency. Drizzle over cooled bars. Store tightly covered on the counter for 2 days or freeze for longer storage.
