Ingredients

  • 120 g Butter, melted then cooled for a few minutes
  • 130 g Caster sugar
  • 130 g Soft light brown sugar
  • 3 Medium Eggs
  • 2 Teaspoons Vanilla extract
  • 200 g Plain flour (all-purpose)
  • 1 Tablespoon Cocoa powder
  • Red gel food colouring
  • 150 g White chocolate chips

Topping (optional):

  • Few Tablespoons Cream cheese frosting (I used a ready-made one but you can use homemade if you prefer)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 160℃ (140℃ if you're using a fan oven). Line an 8x8-inch tin with baking paper.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the melted butter, caster sugar and light brown sugar.
  • Stir in the eggs and vanilla extract.
  • Add all of the flour and the cocoa powder. Mix well to make a smooth, thick blondie batter.
  • Add the red food colouring, starting with around ¼ teaspoon and adding more if needed.
  • Fold in the white chocolate chips.
  • Transfer the batter to your lined tin and spread out evenly. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until the edges look firm and are pulling away from the tin slightly. The middle should look baked but still have a slight wobble.
  • Leave the blondies in the tin to cool completely then put them in the fridge for 3-4 hours to set. This will make the gooey centre turn firm and fudgy.
  • Once set, drizzle some cream cheese frosting on top then cut into squares and enjoy!

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
