How to make Strawberry Lemon Blondies:

For the blondies 

1. Prep. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a 9 X 9 inch cake pan with parchment paper. 
2. Cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer on medium-high speed for 2-3 minutes. The mixture should become fluffy and significantly lighter in color for best results. 
3. Add the eggs and the lemon. Add the wet ingredients, egg, and egg yolk, and mix on medium speed until combined. Add the lemon juice and lemon zest and mix until incorporated. 
4. Add the dry ingredients. Measure the flour, baking powder, and salt directly into the bowl with the butter/sugar/egg mixture. Mix on low speed until incorporated. 
5. Add the mix-ins. Gently fold the strawberries and the sweet white chocolate chips into the batter.  
6. Bake. Spread the blondie batter into the baking pan prepared with cooking spray and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. 
7. Cool. Allow the blondies to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. 

To make the glaze

1. Powder the strawberries. Add the freeze-dried strawberries to a spice grinder and grind until fine. 
2. Rehydrate the strawberries. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the freeze-dried strawberries and the hot water. Allow the mixture to sit for a couple of minutes before whisking again until smooth. 
3. Finish the glaze. Add the powdered sugar, milk, and lemon zest. Whisk until smooth. If the glaze is too thin, add more powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time. If the glaze is too thick, add more heavy cream, 1 teaspoon at a time. 
4. Glaze the blondies. Using a rubber spatula, spread the glaze over the top of the cooled blondies.
5. Serve. Slice the dessert into squares and serve.
