A blondie is a dessert that resembles a brownie, but it has no chocolate in it. It contains vanilla instead of cocoa, and brown sugar to give it the flavor of chocolate. A blondie also contains flour, butter, eggs, and baking powder and may taste like white or dark chocolate chips or butterscotch chips. Instead of a strong chocolate flavor, blondies have notes of caramel and butterscotch thanks to brown butter, a key ingredient in many blondie recipes. Brown sugar adds moistness and chewiness, and it also gives blondies a rich molasses flavor.

National Blonde Brownie Day is celebrated on January 22nd

We have been unable thus far to find the creator of this national day, but we will be sure to keep you posted.
