blondie

n. countable
B2 Upper Intermediate US //ˈbɫɑndi// blondie Informal

n. a baked dessert square typically composed of flour, brown sugar, butter, and eggs, resembling a brownie in texture but lacking cocoa powder.


SIMPLE

She baked a batch of blondies for the office party.

CONTEXTUAL

While brownies rely on chocolate for their depth, a good blondie gets its rich flavor from the caramelization of brown sugar and butter.

COMPLEX

The bakery's signature blondie features a dense, chewy center with a crackly top, often enhanced by the addition of white chocolate chips or toasted pecans to provide textural contrast.

Usage

Often used in the plural when referring to the individual cut squares.
