  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Cinnamon Layer

  • ¼ cup light brown sugar packed

  • 3-4 tablespoons heavy cream or milk of choice

Instructions

How to Make Cinnamon Roll Blondies

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare a 9×9-inch pan by lining it with parchment paper or lightly grease and flour pan.

Cinnamon Roll Blondies

  • Whisk together melted butter, brown sugar and sugar together in a large bowl until combined.
  • Whisk in eggs and vanilla.
  • Add flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt and whisk together until mixture is completely combined.
  • Set aside as you prepare the cinnamon-sugar layer.

Cinnamon Layer

  • In a small bowl combine melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Mix well.

Assembly

  • Spread the blondie batter into prepared baking pan.
  • Using a spoon, drizzle cinnamon layer over the blondie batter randomly, then using the tip of knife, swirl the cinnamon mixture into the batter.
  • Bake for 35-38 minutes, or until the edges just begin to turn golden brown and the center is no longer jiggly.
  • Allow the bars to cool completely before adding the vanilla glaze.

Vanilla Glaze

  • Using a spoon, mix together the confectioner’s sugar, vanilla and cream together to get a thick glaze. Microwave for 5-10 seconds if glaze is extra thick, to help thin the glaze, drizzling over the blondies.
  • Using a spoon, drizzle glaze over cooled blondies. Let glaze set.
