Sophie A ★ 2.0/5

Read all the amazing reviews and was so excited to try these! Used the exact ingredients & measurements but the ground cloves were so overpowering that you couldn't taste anything else, 0 ginger flavour came through, I was gutted :(

Janice ★ 5.0/5

Such a great flavor for the Holidays! This was a test run for some desserts for an upcoming White Elephant. I used my glass baking dish & followed the add'l instructions (metal pan ordered). Even though I baked for ~50 min, it was still underbaked. Also, all the chips went to the bottom. Is there any way to help prevent that from happening?

This is seriously one of the best recipes I've ever made. I doubled the recipe and used a 12x18 pan, so they're a little thicker, which I like. I also just sprinkled regular chocolate chips on top, rather than white. (Although I've made them with white too, and they are excellent.)

Susan ★ 5.0/5

I made them three days ago and they've gotten better every day. I made them as written and just used rounded teaspoons of ginger and cinnamon because I love those flavors. And I didn't have white chocolate chips, but cut up Lindt white chocolate bars into 1/2" pieces instead.
The salt on top (I used Maldon) was an inspired addition.

I do have a question. The blondies in the middle are not very tall. Have you ever increased the recipe by 1/2 or 1/3 and if so, how did they come out?

Thanks so much for this fantastic recipe!

Ross ★ 5.0/5

I made this but didnt have the molasses, I ended up using maple syrup as a substitute!

I also couldn't find ground ginger but despite not using some of the right ingredients, it came out very well!

Mike ★ 5.0/5

These are phenomenal and so easy to make! One of my favorite holiday recipes!

Kyle ★ 5.0/5

These turned out incredible with the perfect chewy brownie texture but flavor of gingerbread!

I skipped the white chocolate chips and instead topped them with cream cheese frosting, which works perfectly with the sunken middle. I also added allspice and some fresh grated nutmeg to round out the spice mixture.

Definitely will be making them again.

Nancy ★ 3.0/5

The flavour is delicious but I found them cloyingly sweet even with cutting back the brown sugar to 1 cup, and they seemed a bit greasy so I might cut back the butter next time. Also I tried them after cooking for 27 minutes and they were not nearly done so I ended up cooking them 20 minutes longer. Btw I doubled the recipe and used a 9 x 13" pan.

Made a pan of this for New Year’s Eve last night and the house smelled so good! It was delicious and fudgy in the middle and chewy on the edges like a cookie! I loved the edges! I didn’t have ground cloves on hand, so I substituted with ground nutmeg and it turned out perfect! The flavor of the spices combined with the molasses was like a warm hug! Next time I’ll try it with a chopped Lindt white chocolate bar!

Ashley ★ 5.0/5
