Delicious vegan blondies stuffed with dark chocolate and walnuts and drizzled with salted caramel for the perfect treat.
What you need to make these vegan blondies
The most heavenly chocolate chunk blondies! They’re crisp on top, perfectly soft, gooey in the center, and studded with walnuts all while being vegan!
You are going to love them, so here’ s what you need:
- flax meal
- water
- all purpose flour
- baking soda
- walnuts, chopped
- vegan chocolate chips and vegan chocolate, chopped
- vegan butter, I like to use the sticks
- light brown sugar or coconut sugar to lighten them up
- granulated cane sugar or Truvia to lighten them up
- vanilla extract
- flaked sea salt
for the salted caramel
- coconut milk, full fat from the can
- coconut sugar
- coconut oil
- vanilla extract
- sea salt
I like to prep the caramel and keep it in the refrigerator for up to week and drizzle it all over EVERYTHING sweet! With that being said, this recipe will make way more caramel than you need for these blondies. If you prefer no caramel, the blondies by themselves are just as delicious!

I made these to take into my workplace and they were so delicious! I had two before I even got there. They are extremely more-ish! Also very easy to make.
I love to hear it!
