White Chocolate & Macadamia Nut Blondies

From Williams & Sonoma--

Ingredients

1 stick of butter (8 TBSP)

• 1 1/4 cups firmly packed light brown sugar
• 2 tsp. instant coffee or instant espresso
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup macadamia nuts, coarsely chopped
• 3-4 oz. white chocolate chips

 Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare an 8 x 8 inch pan with baking spray & parchment paper. Cut the parchment in two 8 x 12 rectangles. Overlap the sheets of parchment, one in each direction, so that you have overhanging "handles" of parchment with which you can lift the blondies after they are baked.                                                                                                                                                          
2. Beat the butter, brown sugar, espresso powder & vanilla until they are light and fluffy. Add the eggs and blend until well mixed.
3. Fold in the flour with a spoon and then mix in the nuts and white chocolate.
4. Use a spatula to empty the batter into the prepared pan. Even the top.
5. Bake for 35-40 minutes. Remove from the oven and lift out of the pan using the parchment handles. Cool completely before serving.
