# How to make it:

03 - In a large bowl, whisk melted butter and brown sugar until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla, whisking until fully combined.
04 - Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined, then gently stir in chopped pistachios.

06 - Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
07 - Lift blondies from pan using parchment overhang. Cut into triangles to resemble Christmas trees.
