Browsing through my Gram's recipe box for inspiration for #BrunchWeek
and there was a card for blondies. I've eaten plenty of blondies in my
time, but have never made them myself. These were interesting to me
because it starts with melting butter with brown sugar.
This post is sponsored in conjunction with #BrunchWeek. I received product samples from sponsor companies to aid in the creation of the #Brunchweek recipes. All opinions are mine alone.
I replaced the vanilla called for in that recipe with Torani Salted Caramel syrup. They were absolutely delicious, but then I decided to take it into "over the top" territory. I layered the blondies, real whipped heavy cream and chopped Rolo candies into some beautiful Joy Jolt Carre martini glasses. I'm a huge fan of individually portioned desserts, especially for brunch or other family functions.
Salted Caramel Blondie Trifle
Ingredients
- For the blondies:
- 2 cups Dixie Crystals Light Brown Sugar (packed)
- 2/3 cup Cabot butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon Torani Salted Caramel Syrup
- 2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
For the trifle:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup Dixie Crystals Powdered Sugar
- Chopped Rolo candies
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt butter and sugar together in a large saucepan until smooth. Stir constantly. Cool, then beat in eggs. Stir in salted caramel syrup.
- Coat a 13x9 pan with non stick spray. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near center tests clean. Cut into bars while warm. Let cool completely.
- Beat heavy cream, and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form ( I chill my mixing bowl and beaters for several hours or even overnight). Place blondie in bottom of glass. Top with a layer of whipped cream, sprinkle with chopped Rolos. Repeat.
- Keep chilled until serving.
