    Tips on How to Make Chocolate Ganache Blondies:

    • Before mixing the dry ingredients like all-purpose flour and granulated sugar, sift them individually. This easy but very important step would make your chocolate ganache blondies nice and evenly textured. It wouldn’t be fun biting into a lump of flour in between 🙂
    • If you don’t have chocolate chips and have a chocolate bar instead, simply chop it in small bits and you have equally delicious chocolate chips to go with your chocolate ganache blondies!
    • Do not over-mix the batter. Over-mixing will make the final baked product harder and rubbery.

    How to Make Chocolate Ganache Blondies:

    These are the ingredients that you will need:

    BLONDIES

    • butter
    • brown sugar
    • egg
    • vanilla extract
    • salt
    • all-purpose flour
    • semi chocolate chips
    • white chocolate chips
    • dried cranberries

    GANACHE

    • semisweet chocolate chips
    • half & half

    Before starting the mixing process, preheat oven to 350F, line an 8×8 pan with parchment paper or foil.

    Slice it depending on how big you want each serving to be 🙂 For me, the bigger the slice, the better!

    Frequently Asked Questions for the Chocolate Ganache Blondies Recipe:

    Q: Should these  chocolate ganache blondies be refrigerated after baking?

    A: You can keep it in room temperature for at least a few hours. But to be sure that the ganache won’t melt, you can keep this in the fridge but make sure to store them in an airtight container.

    Q: Can I increase the quantity of the chocolate chips?

    A: Yes, you can add more, but also remember to not put too much chocolate chips as it might cause the blondies to break apart.

    A: Yes, you can freeze the mixed dough and thaw completely before baking it.
