I had never heard of blondies before but when I heard they were the vanilla equivalent of the brownie I was keen to give them a go.
I found a recipe on the fantastic blog of Hello Cuppies – I adapted the recipe slightly as I couldn’t get hold of Jammie Dodgers in New Zealand but you can find the original recipe here.
You will need:
200g unsalted butter
250g light brown sugar
200g white chocolate
280g plain flour
1 pinch of salt
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
5-6 tsps of raspberry jam
Packet of Squiggles biscuits
Preheat the oven to 180C/160C fan and line a brownie tin with baking paper.
Begin by boiling some water in a saucepan and melting the butter and sugar in a bowl placed on top.
Add half of the white chocolate and stir until melted. Once melted leave to cool for 5 minutes.
Sieve the salt and the flour into the chocolate mixture.
This will form quite a thick mixture.
Add the eggs one at a time until completely absorbed into the mixture.
Add the vanilla extract, the remaining chocolate and pour into the brownie tin.
Spoon over some dollops of raspberry jam and using a skewer, swirl it around.
Lay the biscuits on top. I used strawberry flavoured Squiggles.
Bake for 30 minutes then leave to cool for as long as you can manage! Slice into squares and enjoy.
Let me know if you give these a go – I really enjoyed them!
