Brown the butter by placing it in a saucepan over medium heat and cook it until it foams and turns a deep golden brown. Remove it from the heat, pour it into a large mixing bowl, and then refrigerate it for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a 13x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper and leave some hanging over both ends of the pan for easy removal later. Lightly grease the bottom of the parchment paper-lined pan with non-stick cooking spray and set it aside.
Combine the brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract with the browned butter and mix until well combined. Add the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt, and then stir until just combined. Then stir in the white chocolate chips. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
Bake for about 20 minutes until the edges turn golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean from the center. Remove from the oven and let cool completely. Then lift the blondies out of the pan and slice them into square bars. Serve and enjoy!

If you halve the recipe you can cook the brownies in an 8-inch square pan.
Feel free to throw in some chopped pecans or walnuts to add some crunch.
You can use white sugar instead of brown if you want, or try milk chocolate chips instead of white ones.
