Servings: persons

1 cup unsalted butter, plus more for pan
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups light brown sugar, packed
3 tablespoons freshly ground coffee (use decaf if you're concerned about caffeine!)
1 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup sliced almonds, skin on
For the glaze
1 tablespoon melted butter, warm
2 tablespoons Irish whiskey
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar

1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2
Butter a 9 x 13 inch baking pan, and line with parchment. (If you don't have parchment, you can use PAM with good results as well).
3
Whisk together flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
4
Melt the 2 cups of butter, and pour into a mixing bowl with brown sugar, ground coffee, and 1 teaspoon salt.
5
Stir to combine.
6
Stir in eggs and vanilla extract.
7
Stir in flour mixture until just combined.
8
Pour batter into pan, and sprinkle with almonds.
9
Bake 27 - 30 minutes, depending on how chewy you like your blondies (a shorter baking time results in a chewier blondie). Let cool completely before adding glaze.
10
Make the glaze by whisking together 1 tablespoon of melted butter and whiskey.
11
Gradually whisk in confectioners sugar until glaze is thick but pourable (you may not need all the sugar).
12
Using a spoon or a pastry bag fitted with a plain round tip, drizzle glaze over blondies in a rough crosshatch pattern.
13
Let glaze dry 1 hour.
14
Cut blondies into 2 inch squares.
15
Blondies can be stored at room temperature up to 2 days, or freeze in an airtight container for longer keeping.
