What are blondies?

Brownies may be legendary but blondies may have been invented first. The name comes from the light colour, which is probably no surprise. They are, in many ways, like brownies in shape and texture. But they use vanilla and brown sugar to add flavour, rather than cocoa and chocolate. To me they taste predominantly of caramel thanks to the copious amount of brown sugar. 

Why You’ll Love Them

With all the tasty sweetness of a warm cake plus the chewiness we love from brownies, blondies are an underestimated treat. This recipe makes the most of fantastic hazelnuts, one of natures great gifts.  I would recommend this recipe for making with kids. It’s always a great idea to introduce children to the kitchen early. It gives them a sense of confidence and teaches them to enjoy, rather than dread, time spent cooking.  Recipes like this one are perfect for making with kids. The ingredient list is short and the techniques are simple. It’s a great place to start, and something you know they will love to eat!
