How to Make Tahiti Blondies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with cooking spray.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened, and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  5. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Stir in 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut, 1 cup chopped cashews (or macadamia nuts), 1 cup drained crushed pineapple, and 1 cup white chocolate chips.
  8. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Do not overbake!
  10. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
  11. Use a round cookie cutter (optional) to create individual blondies, replicating the Throwdown challenge look!
