Blondies are basically brownies without the cocoa. They are perfect for an afternoon treat with a cup of tea in front of a cosy fire.
What do I need?
Dry Ingredients -
200g Plain Flour
1/2 Teaspoon Bicarbonate of Soda
100g Plain Chocolate Chips (Optional)
60g Chopped Pecans
1tsp Cinnamon
1tsp Ginger
Wet Ingredients -
115g Butter
75g Soft Demerara Sugar
2 Large Eggs
2tsp Vanilla essence
What should I do?
1. Preheat Oven to 180c / 350f & grease a square or rectangle brownie tin. About 9inch.
2. In a medium bowl combine all the dry ingredients with a fork or whisk.
3. In a large bowl cream together butter, sugar & vanilla.
4. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beat in eggs, blend well.
5. Gradually fold dry ingredients into the butter mixture. As this is similar to a cookie dough in consistency I find it best to use large spoon. Mix just long enough to combine - DO NOT over mix!
6. Spread batter into greased tin, smoothing the top with a spatula or the back of a spoon.
7. Bake on the center rack of the oven for 30 to 35min.
8. Blondies are ready when batter it set and a toothpick comes out clean. Careful not to over bake!
9. Cool in pan for 15 min before turning out to cool on a wire rack for about 1hr. Cut into portions and enjoy!
