Strawberry & Macadamia Blondies - Recipe

Viva Strawberry & Macadamia Blondies

These are a great alternative to the traditional chocolate brownie. Bursting with strawberries, chocolate and nuts, these simple cake squares are ideal with a coffee or as a dessert served with vanilla ice cream. They will keep for a day or two in an airtight tin – if they last that long!

Makes 16 squares
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 30 Minutes

Ingredients:
125g unsalted butter
200g white chocolate, chopped
100g light muscovado sugar
2eEggs
130g plain flour
pinch of salt
120g Viva trawberries, chopped
100g macadamia nuts, roughly chopped


Method:
1. Heat the oven to 180C. Line a baking tin (approx 22cm square) with grease proof paper. In a pan, melt the butter and cook on a low heat for 5 minutes until the white solids start to turn golden. Pour into a cold bowl then add half of the chocolate and stir until melted.

2. In a separate bowl whisk together the eggs and sugar until they are thick and golden. Tip in the flour, a pinch of salt and the chocolatey butter and fold in with a spatula until smooth.

3. Tip in the strawberries, nuts and remaining chocolate and stir briefly. Pour the mixture into the tin and bake for 30 minutes. The blondies are done when they have a light golden crust but are still a little squidgy inside. Allow to cool in the tin then cut into squares.
