Equipment

  • 1 8X8 pan

Ingredients

  • 10 Tablespoons unsalted butter 141 grams
  • 6 oz white chocolate 170 grams
  • 1 ¼ cups granulated sugar 250 grams
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 2 large eggs + 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour 220 grams
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 cup blueberries
  • 3/4 cup white chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  • Line an 8X8 square pan with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 350F.
  • In a large heat proof bowl, add butter and white chocolate. Microwave in 30 second increments, mixing in between, until butter and white chocolate are completely melted and smooth. Set aside.
  • In a separate large bowl, the sugar, the eggs, egg yolk, lemon zest and vanilla. Using a whisk or a hand mixer, whisk vigorously until mixture changes in both texture and color. It will become significantly lighter!
  • In a separate small bowl, add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix with a fork to combine.
  • Add melted white chocolate and butter to the large bowl with the sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Fold together until homogeneous. Fold in flour and dry ingredients until thick dough forms. Fold in blueberries and white chocolate, batter will be thick! Fold in blueberries, reserving just a few to place on top of the batter later.
  • Pour batter into pan with prepared parchment and place a few blueberries on top. Bake for 40 minutes, covering the top of the bars with a layer of aluminum foil about 25 minutes through to prevent browning. Remove from oven and let cool. Enjoy!
