Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter, melted

• 2 large eggs
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt

For the Cinnamon Swirl:

• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1 tbsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven
   Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
2. Make the Blondie Batter
   In a large bowl, mix melted butter and brown sugar until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla extract, whisking well. Stir in flour, baking powder, and salt until just combined.
3. Prepare the Cinnamon Swirl
   In a small bowl, combine melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon, mixing until fully incorporated.
4. Layer and Swirl
   Pour half of the blondie batter into the prepared pan. Spoon half of the cinnamon mixture over the batter. Repeat with remaining batter and cinnamon mixture. Using a knife or skewer, swirl the cinnamon mixture through the batter for a marbled effect.
5. Bake
   Bake for 25–30 minutes or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
6. Cool and Serve
   Let cool completely in the pan before slicing into bars. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
