An utterly divine creation! Joking aside, you can get Biscoff Spread and Biscoff Biscuits. The spread is a similar concept to nutella, but with a caramelised biscuit flavour (with a subtle hint of cinnamon). I have stuck to using the Lotus Biscoff Biscuits in this recipe as they add a delicious texture as well as the iconic Biscoff flavour to the blondies.

Contrary to popular belief, blondies are not simply white chocolate brownies. They have a very different flavour and texture. Whereas brownies are all about rich, chocolatey-ness, blondies are all about creating a deep caramelised (almost toffee-ish) flavour courtesy of the brown sugar. They do have white chocolate in it, but they aren’t the star of the show (like dark chocolate often is in brownies).

What is the difference between vanilla extract, vanilla essence and vanilla bean paste?

I always use vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract because they are both natural products made with real vanilla (in contrast to vanilla essence which is artificial and will give whatever you bake a synthetic taste). In most cases, you can use vanilla extract and vanilla bean paste interchangeably. However, if you want to add a bit of visual flair with specks of vanilla, opt for vanilla bean paste. Nielsen Massey have a really interesting post about it here .

What can I serve with these Biscoff Blondies?

I like to enjoy these Biscoff Blondies just as they are as a snack with a cup of tea or coffee. You could serve them warm for pudding with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and perhaps some raspberries or cherries too.

Ingredients

Units Scale

190g unsalted butter, cubed
280g soft light brown sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 160 Fan and line a 20 cm square tin with non-stick baking paper.
In a medium-sized saucepan set over a low heat, melt the butter and sugar together, stirring occasionally until the sugar has dissolved and the butter has melted. Remove from the heat, pour into a large mixing bowl and leave to cool slightly for about 10 minutes (don’t worry if the butter and sugar look like they have separated - this is normal).
Use a whisk (or an electric whisk) to bring the butter and sugar back together until smooth.
Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, whisking between each addition. Add the vanilla and whisk again.
In a separate smaller bowl, sieve together the flour and baking powder. Add a third of the dry ingredients into the wet, then gently fold together. Repeat until all the dry ingredients have been added and you have a smooth mixture - take care not to overmix.
Roughly chop 75g of the Biscoff biscuits, saving the rest for decoration. Fold through the chopped biscuits along with the chopped dark and white chocolate until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Pour into the prepared tin, then place the remaining Biscoff biscuits on top and sprinkle with the salt.
Bake for about 30-35 minutes, the blondies should have a nice shiny crust on top but still feel soft to touch - take care not to over cook because you want the blondies to have a nice fudgy texture. Leave to cool completely in the tin before slicing into 16 small or 9 large squares.

Notes

For clean slices, once the blondie has completely cooled, cover and chill in the fridge for a few hours to help it fully firm up.
