Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Blondies

Preheat the oven to 325˚F. Grease a 9 by 13-inch baking pan and set aside.
Whip egg whites to stiff peaks (about 3-4 minutes). Add butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract and whip to combine. Batter will start out lumpy, but should be smooth when fully combined.
Sift dry ingredients together and slowly pour into bowl with mixer running on low speed. Add milk and blend to incorporate.
Fold white chocolate chunks and walnuts into batter. Pour into prepared baking pan.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool on a wire rack. Cut into squares.

Sauce

Beat all sauce ingredients together in a mixing bowl until well combined. Use immediately or store in the refrigerator until ready to use.

To serve

Heat blondie and sauce for several seconds (20-30) in microwave (separately). Stir sauce. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream to top of one blondie square and pour sauce over. Sprinkle with additional chopped walnuts as desired.
