Ovenly's Whisky & Fig Blondies | Food52 + The Balvenie

Meet our new go-to winter dessert, straight from the women behind the much-beloved New York City bakery, Ovenly: whisky and fig blondies. The whisky serves two very important purposes here: to soak the fruit (so they get plump and Scotch-y) and mix into the batter. The result is a tender, chewy blondie with caramelly, undeniably holiday-ready flavor. GET THE RECIPE ►► https://f52.co/33jbhjL
