Ingredients

Blondies

  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 cup persimmon, skinned and diced

Brown Sugar Icing

  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

Blondies

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8x8 baking dish (I used a glass dish) with parchment paper. 

  2. In a large bowl, mix together melted butter and brown sugar. Mix until creamy and combined. 

  3. Add in the egg, vanilla and salt until combined. Next add the flour, about 1/3 cup at a time until all combined. Next, fold in the diced persimmons and gently mix until they are integrated and evenly distributed into the batter. 

  4. Bake for 25-30 minutes, making sure a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. 

  5. Cool the dish on a wire rack. Frost when cool to the touch.  

Brown Sugar Icing

  1. Melt butter in a medium sized saucepan over medium-low heat. Add brown sugar and milk. Stir mixture and bring to a boil. As soon as mixture starts to boil, remove from heat and cool for 5 minutes. 

  2. Add in powdered sugar and mix until all lumps disappear. 

  3. Pour/spread icing onto cooled blondies. Cut into 12 squares once icing has set and cooled.
