Candy corn dessert recipe ingredients
These candy corn blondies are rich, tasty, and the perfect star of any Halloween party. I used brown sugar to sweeten the batter and white chocolate to add an extra bit of richness.
To make this candy corn bar recipe, you’ll need the following items:
- 1 cup (170 grams) white chocolate morsels
- 1/2 cup (113 grams) unsalted butter, melted (1 stick)
- 1/2 cup (113 grams) light brown sugar, packed
- 2 whole eggs
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
- Pinch of sea salt
- 1 2/3 cup (200 grams) all-purpose flour
- 2 1/2 tsp (7.2 grams) baking powder
- 1/3 cup (58 grams) candy corn
- 1/3 cup (58 grams) white chocolate, melted (to drizzle on the blondies)
Instructions for making these white chocolate candy corn blondies
Start by melting the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Remove the pan from the heat and add a half cup of the white chocolate chips.
Let this mixture sit for a couple of minutes and then gently stir to incorporate the white chocolate into the butter.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Put the butter and white chocolate mixture in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add the eggs, and vanilla extract and mix well. Gradually stir in the flour mixture until it is combined.
Then, fold in the remaining white chocolate chips.
Line a 9″ x 13″ baking pan with parchment paper and spread the white chocolate batter mixture in the lined pan. Sprinkle the candy corn on top of the batter keeping it away from the edges.
Bake the candy corn blondies for 20-35 minutes and then move them to a wire rack. Allow them to cool completely before cutting this Halloween dessert into bars.
Melt 1/3 cup white chocolate in the microwave and add it to an icing bag. Drizzle the bars with the melted white chocolate.
This gives a polished look to the top of the bars, and hides the indentations the candy corn makes when it sinks down in the blondie batter.
A note on recipes that use candy corn
If you often make desserts using candy corn, you know that working with it can be a bit of a challenge.
If the candy touches the bottom or outside of the pan, it can stick to the sides makes a gooey mess. Also, if it sits too low in the batter, it can harden and be tough to chew.
The trick is to keep it away from the edges of the pan and put it in the upper half of the batter, so that the batter will envelop the candy.
Time to taste this candy corn dessert
