Ingredients

• 0.5 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 0.25 cup key lime juice
• 1 tablespoon key lime zest
• 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup white chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.

Step 2

In a medium microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter in the microwave in 20-second intervals until fully melted. Allow it to cool slightly.

Step 3

Whisk in the granulated sugar to the melted butter until smooth. Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition.

Step 4

Stir in the key lime juice and key lime zest until fully incorporated.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the white chocolate chips to the batter for added sweetness and texture.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly using a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.

Step 10

Once cooled, lift the brownies out using the parchment paper overhang. Dust the top with powdered sugar before cutting into 9 squares. Serve and enjoy!
