Ingredients
150g Unsalted Butter, diced
150g Soft Light Brown Sugar
50g Golden Caster Sugar
1 tsp Almond Extract
2 Eggs
150g Bake by Asda Plain Flour
50g Ground Almonds
½ tsp Bake by Asda Baking Powder
100g White Chocolate, chopped
75g Dried Cherries, roughly chopped
3 tbsp Morello Cherry Conserve
30g Flaked Almonds
Method
1
Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas 4. Grease and line the base and sides of a 20cm square tin with baking paper.
2
Melt the butter in a heavy bottomed saucepan over a low-medium heat. Continue cooking the melted butter, swirling the pan from time to time for another 2 mins until it begins to smell of toasted nuts and the milk solids separate and become golden brown. Tip the butter into a large mixing bowl and leave to cool for 3–4 mins.
3
Add both sugars and the almond extract to the melted butter and whisk to combine using a balloon whisk. Add the eggs and whisk again to combine.
4
Sift the plain flour, ground almonds, baking powder and a pinch of salt into the bowl. Add the chocolate chunks and dried cherries and use a rubber spatula to mix thoroughly through the batter. Spoon the mixture into the lined tin and spread level.
5
Dollop the cherry conserve over the top of the blondies and lightly swirl into the mixture using a teaspoon. Scatter with flaked almonds and bake for 30–35 mins until risen and golden brown. Leave to cool completely before cutting into neat little squares.
