Blondies

Ingredients

• 7 ozsalted butter
• 10 1/2 ozlight brown sugar
• 3eggs, at room temperature
• 7 3/4 ozall-purpose flour
• 2 tspvanilla extract
• 5 1/4 ozwhite chocolate, roughly chopped
• 3/4 tspfine sea salt
• 1/2 tspbaking powder

Method

1. 1

   Heat the oven to 350°F and line a 20 by 30cm pan. Melt the butter, stir it into the brown sugar until it looks like wet sand, and leave it for 5 minutes to come off the boil.

2. 2

   Add the eggs one at a time with the vanilla, beating vigorously for a good minute after each one until the mixture is glossy and noticeably paler.

3. 3

   Sift over the flour, baking powder and salt and fold in with a spatula until only just combined, then fold through most of the white chocolate.

4. 4

   Spread into the pan, scatter the rest of the chocolate over and bake for 22 to 25 minutes, until the edges are set and the middle still has a slight wobble. Cool completely in the pan before cutting.
