Bourbon Pecan Blondies are wonderfully chewy and buttery and deliciously flavored with bourbon. I love the crunch of pecans that they have. What I Love About These Blondies No Mixer Needed. The batter gets mixed in a mixing bowl with a whisk. Super easy and convenient. The combination of bourbon and pecans is a classic southern flavor combination that really works well. They have a wonderful buttery sweet flavor from lots of brown sugar and toffee bits. They have a chewy texture around the edges and are a little moist and gooey in the middle. Only pantry ingredients are needed, plus a little bourbon from the liquor cabinet! Bourbon Bourbon is by far my favorite liquor to bake and cook with. Some of my favorite recipes using bourbon are Bourbon Beef Stew, Bourbon Balls, Peach Bourbon Tres Leches, and Pecan Chicken in Bourbon Maple Cream Gravy. The bourbon gives the blondies a sweet and smoky flavor. You can use any bourbon you like. I typically use Maker’s Mark. It has a nice smooth flavor. How To Serve Bourbon Pecan Blondies These Bourbon Pecan Blondies are great for a Kentucky Derby Party, a potluck, or dessert. They even go great with a cup of coffee. Serve as is or top with vanilla ice cream, fresh whipped cream, or caramel sauce. Tips For Making Blondies Bake until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Be careful not to overbake them or they will be dry. The edges should be golden and the middle just set. Be sure to measure the flour correctly. First fluff it up some in the bag. Then gently scoop it into a dry measuring cup, overfilling it slightly. Then run the back of a knife across the top to level it off and get rid of the excess. Variations Use walnuts in place of pecans. Add half a cup of chocolate chips. How To Store Can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days. You can freeze them for up to 2 months.
