Nutty, gooey magic for the ultimate bakery-style dessert!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (for rich brown butter flavor)
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup honey (sweet, sticky goodness)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ¾ cup shelled pistachios, roughly chopped (for that nutty dessert vibe)
  • ¼ cup white chocolate chips (optional but dreamy)
  • Flaky sea salt, for topping

Instructions

  1. Brown the Butter: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and cook until it turns golden brown with a nutty aroma. Let it cool slightly.
  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients: Whisk brown sugar and honey into the warm browned butter until glossy. Add eggs and vanilla, mixing until smooth.
  3. Add the Dry Ingredients: Stir in flour, salt, and baking powder just until combined. Fold in chopped pistachios and white chocolate chips.
  4. Bake to Perfection: Spread the batter evenly into a lined 8×8-inch pan. Bake at 350°F for 25–30 minutes, until golden on top but still slightly soft in the center.
  5. Finish & Slice: While warm, sprinkle with flaky sea salt and extra pistachios. Let cool completely before slicing into bars.

Notes

  • For best results, let the bars cool completely before slicing.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
