Tiramisu Blondie Bars
Tiramisu Blondie Bars are a delectable dessert that combines the rich flavors of tiramisu with the chewy texture of blondies. These bars are perfect for any occasion and are sure to impress your guests.
To make Tiramisu Blondie Bars, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup mascarpone cheese
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon espresso powder
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
To begin, preheat your oven to 350°F and line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugar until well combined. Add in the egg and vanilla extract, and whisk until smooth.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth out the top with a spatula.
Bake the blondies for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan before removing them and cutting them into bars.
While the blondies are cooling, prepare the tiramisu topping. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, espresso powder, and cocoa powder until smooth and creamy. Spread the tiramisu mixture over the cooled blondies, using a spatula to smooth it out evenly.
Refrigerate the Tiramisu Blondie Bars for at least 30 minutes before serving. When ready to serve, cut the bars into squares and dust with additional cocoa powder, if desired.
These Tiramisu Blondie Bars are the perfect combination of sweet and creamy, with a chewy texture that will leave you wanting more. They are a great dessert for any occasion, and are sure to impress your guests.
