Ingredients
  

For the Blondies
  • 2 cups firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • ¼ cup bourbon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup peach preserves
  • 1 cup fresh peaches, diced (about 1 medium peach)
For the Glaze
  • cups powdered sugar
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp bourbon

Method
 

For the Blondies
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, letting the excess hang off of the sides of the pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, baking powder and salt. Gradually add the melted butter and stir until just combined.
  3. Stir in ¼ cup of bourbon and vanilla. Add the eggs one a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the flour until just combined.
  4. Fold in the peach preserves and then fold in ¾ cup of the diced peaches. Spread batter into the prepared pan and top with remaining ¼ cup of peaches.
  5. Bake until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs, about 35 to 40 minutes. After 30 minutes of baking, you can cover lightly with a piece of aluminum foil to prevent over browning.
  6. Let cool completely on wire rack.
For the Glaze
  1. In a medium bowl, stir together the powdered sugar, maple syrup and bourbon. Drizzle over cooled blondies and enjoy!

Notes

  • Blondies can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or frozen. Just make the glaze when you pull them out of the freezer!
