Snickerdoodle Chocolate Chip Blondies with Brownie Bottom

As you guys know, my last Snickerdoodle creation was… to sum it up in one word.. well.. fabulous! So, when Amy invited me over for a day of lounging, tanning, nail painting and sausage eating (… just go with it), I knew I wanted to bring a delicious treat to thank her for letting me use and abuse her pool access!

Therefore, these amazing creations were made.  What is better than Snickerdoodles? Well obviously Chocolate Chip Snickerdoodles. What is better than Chocolate Chip Snickerdoodles, obviously making them into blondies so here we go!

This wonderful creation was a combination of two great recipes, and a little bit of substituting here and there.

We will go ahead and make the Snickerdoodles blondies first and then follow up with brownie bottom

Ingredients for Snickerdoodle Blondies (adapted from Baking Bites)

1/2 cup Unsalted Butter

1 cup Sugar

1/4 tsp Salt

2 Egg Whites

1 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract

1 cup All Purpose Flour

1/2 cup Chocolate Chips

Steps:

1) Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F

2) Cream together butter and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl

3) Add in salt, egg and vanilla extract and mix with the electric mixer

4) Add in flour and stir with a spoon (do not use mixer, it will go everywhere and you will look like it is snowing in your kitchen).

5) Take half of batter and put it in  a separate mixing bowl

6) Add all the chocolate chips to the second bowl and mix until integrated (you will have two bowls, one with chocolate chips and one without)

Now we move on to the brownie bottom (adapted from Gina’s Blog)

Ingredients for Brownie Bottom:

1 1/2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter

1/3 cup Sugar

1/4 cup Water

12 tsp Vanilla Extract

1/2 cup Flour

1/2 tsp Baking Powder

2 tbsp Unsweetened Cocoa Powder

Steps:

1) Melt butter in the microwave

2) Poor melted butter into a mixing bowl, add in sugar, vanilla extract and water.

3) Stir in flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda and mix well.

Making the Layers:

1) In a Banana Bread Pan (yup not sure the dimensions, you know what I am talking about) spread the thick brownie batter evenly along the bottom

2) Take the Chocolate Chip Snickerdoodle and layer it evenly on top of the brownie batter

3) Layer the final bowl of Snickerdoodle batter (without chocolate chips) on the top evenly

4) Sprinkle with Cinnamon and Sugar for Snickerdoodle topping.

5) Bake for 30 to 45 minutes, until you can insert a fork into the middle and it will come out nice and clean!

Look at these suckers:

Are you drooling yet? You should be, the multiple layers are legit unreal and anything involving a cinnamon sugar topping gets an A+ in my book.  If I could change one thing, I would say, maybe the brownie bottom wasn’t really a necessary addition.  But hey, more chocolate never hurts right?
