Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
  3. Stir in granulated sugar and brown sugar until well combined.
  4. Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing until fully incorporated.
  5. Mix in vanilla extract and instant coffee until evenly distributed.
Mixing Ingredients
  1. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  2. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined.
Baking
  1. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  2. Bake for 20–25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  3. Let the blondies cool in the pan before slicing them into squares.

Notes

Use high-quality instant coffee for a more robust flavor. For richer taste, brown the butter before combining with sugars. If desired, add walnuts or chocolate chips for texture. Allow to cool completely for cleaner cuts.
