We’ve partnered with The Balvenie Single Malt Scotch Whisky—each bottle is made with distinctive character and craftsmanship—to share the many ways we’re celebrating the season, from sipping cozy cocktails with friends to whipping up holiday-ready recipes.
If there’s one thing we know about Agatha Kulaga and Erin Patinkin—the women behind the much-beloved New York City bakery, Ovenly—it’s that they know how to make a knock-your-socks-off dessert.
From their Genius-approved Secretly Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies to these rave-worthy Currant Rosemary Scones, we’ve yet to pass up any treat that leaves their ovens. So it should come as no surprise that when Agatha made a recent visit to our test kitchen, she brought along a recipe that’s since become our new go-to holiday dessert: Whisky and Fig Blondies.

The recipe calls for a cup of whisky, which serves two purposes: One, to soak the fruit, and two, to mix into the batter. The resulting flavor is complex, deeply caramelly, and undeniably perfect for the holidays.
They’re a great make-ahead option, and—pro tip—taste even better with a scoop of Senior Editor Eric Kim’s No-Churn Ice Cream with vanilla and (you guessed it) a splash of whisky mixed in. Check out the video above to watch Agatha and Eric whip up these new cold-weather classics in our test kitchen, plus get a few of their tips and tricks for pulling off them off at home.
