As a Registered Dietitian who loves sweets, I believe all foods can fit into a balanced diet. I aim to make desserts that are still delicious but use a bit less sugar and saturated fat, and more fiber than many traditional recipes.

These white chocolate raspberry blondies pair tangy raspberries with sweet white chocolate for a flavor combination you’ll want to make again and again.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

  • Easy to make — No kitchen scale required and only one bowl, so cleanup is minimal. You can add ingredients in order to the same large bowl without mixing wet and dry separately.
  • Simple ingredients — Flour, cane sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, eggs, butter, white chocolate, raspberries, baking soda, and salt.
  • Delicious dessert — The tart raspberries and sweet white chocolate make a crowd-pleasing bar without milk or dark chocolate.
  • Less sugar — This version uses less added sugar and butter than many blondie recipes while still delivering great flavor.

What is a Blondie?

A blondie is like a brownie but without cocoa or chocolate in the batter. The ideal blondie is moist and gooey in the center rather than cakey.

Dietitian Tips

Tip 1 Try different desserts regularly to introduce kids and family to new flavors — variety keeps eating enjoyable.

Tip 2 Adding fruit to blondies is an easy way to introduce new textures, add natural color, and boost fiber without artificial dyes.

Ingredient Notes

Raspberry and White Chocolate Blondie ingredients, labeled.
  • Raspberries — Frozen raspberries work best because they hold up while mixing and distribute more evenly. If using fresh, wash and dry them first.
  • White chocolate — Choose a good-quality white chocolate for the best flavor. Use chips or roughly chopped chunks.
  • Flour — This recipe uses a mix of white whole wheat and unbleached all-purpose flour. You can substitute more all-purpose if needed, but texture and flavor will change slightly.
  • Butter — Use very soft (not melted) unsalted butter for proper texture. Allow butter to come to room temperature before mixing.
  • Sugars — A blend of granulated cane sugar and brown sugar gives chewiness and deeper flavor. Light or dark brown sugar both work; dark will give a richer color and taste.

How to Make These White Chocolate Raspberry Blondies

Summary steps — see the recipe card below for exact ingredients and details.

  1. Cream softened butter with cane sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla until blended. Add eggs and mix just until combined.
  2. Add flours, baking soda, and salt; stir until the dry ingredients are just incorporated. Avoid overmixing.
  3. Fold in the white chocolate chips or chunks by hand.
  4. Gently fold in the frozen raspberries.
  5. Spread the dough onto a parchment-lined jelly roll or brownie pan, flattening with your palm. Bake at 375°F for 16–18 minutes until the edges are light golden. Cool completely before slicing.

Helpful Tips

  • Allow the blondies to cool fully before slicing for cleaner squares.
  • Frozen raspberries will soften as you press the dough down — this is normal.
  • Fold in chocolate and raspberries by hand rather than with a stand mixer to avoid smashing berries.
  • If using an electric mixer, keep speed at medium-low while mixing; briefly increase speed at the end only to dislodge batter from the attachment.
  • If you only have fresh berries, freeze them for a few hours before using to prevent excess bleeding.
  • All-purpose flour can replace white whole wheat if desired.
  • Use up to 2 cups of frozen raspberries for very gooey blondies.
  • To freeze, layer cooled blondies with parchment between layers in a freezer-safe container. Thaw at room temperature.

Questions You May Have

Are blondies supposed to be gooey?

Yes — blondies are traditionally moist and slightly gooey in the center. The raspberries in this recipe add extra gooeyness. If you prefer a firmer bar, bake slightly longer or try a different cookie-bar recipe.

Do blondies harden as they cool?

They firm up a bit while cooling but shouldn’t become hard. If they do, they were likely overbaked.

Can I freeze homemade blondies?

Yes. Layer cooled blondies with parchment between layers in a freezer-safe bag or container, remove excess air, and freeze. Thaw at room temperature when ready to serve.

Equipment

  • 1 Mixing bowl
  • 1 Whisk
  • 1 Spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Parchment paper
  • Jelly roll pan or brownie sheet pan

Ingredients

  

  • ½ cup butter Unsalted, very soft
  • ½ cup cane sugar
  • cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla pure extract
  • 2 eggs large
  • cup white whole wheat flour or substitute all-purpose
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • cup white chocolate chips
  • cup raspberries frozen

Instructions

 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Line a rimmed baking sheet or jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine softened butter, brown sugar, cane sugar, and vanilla. Mix until blended.
  • Add the two eggs and mix just until incorporated.
  • Stir in the flours, baking soda, and salt until the dry ingredients are just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Fold in the white chocolate chips by hand.
  • Gently fold in the frozen raspberries, taking care not to crush them.
  • Place the dough on the prepared pan and use the palm of your hand to flatten and spread it evenly. Leave some space between the dough and pan edges; the batter will spread while baking.
  • Bake 16–18 minutes. Bake 16 minutes for gooey centers, or 18 minutes for a slightly firmer texture.
  • Let the blondies cool completely on the pan, then cut into squares and serve.
