These blondies are pure comfort—chewy, rich, and infused with deep caramel notes from nutty brown butter. Toasted pecans add a warm crunch that balances the sweetness, making them the kind of dessert you sneak “just one more” piece of. Perfect with a cup of coffee or as a cozy fall bake to share (or not).
