Bakewell Blondies!

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180C/160C Fan and line a 9x9" square tin with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, add your Melted butter and Sugars and beat till smooth.

Step 3

Add in the Eggs and Almond Extract and beat again till smooth.

Step 4

Add in the Flour, Ground Almonds and Cornflour and beat till a thick blondie mixture is made - it really doesn't take long to create this mixture!

Step 5

Add in your White Chocolate Chips and fold through.

Step 6

Pour the mixture into the tin, and spread. Dollop on the jam, and lightly swirly through the blondie mixture.

Step 7

Sprinkle over the Flaked Almonds!

Step 8

Bake the Blondies in the oven for 30 minutes, or until there is an ever so slight wobble in the middle. (see notes below)

Step 9

Leave the Blondies to cool in the tin till cool.

Step 10

One top tip - to help firm them up before cutting, put them in the fridge for an hour or so once they have cooled - it creates a lovely fudgey texture!
