Tired of baking and eating something chocolatey, well introducing the blondies. Yes blondies, which basically means blonde brownies. Blondies are basically the total opposite of brownies and they are so delicious!

The base of blondies can be white chocolate, but for me, it’s a little bit too sweet. Blondies are basically giant cookies too, so in this recipe, it’s similar to a big cookie except that this recipe, is completely egg-free! Why did I make it egg-free you ask? Well sometimes, you just don’t have enough eggs in the fridge or maybe you’re tired of having eggs in all of your baking recipes. This recipe will solve all your egg-problems.

So how will we get a rise and the batter to hold its shape together without eggs? Well, we’ll get a rise from baking powder, and we substitute the eggs with cream.

That already sounds promising enough right? To add to that, we have added strawberry jam into the batter to give this more flavour. I just love that strawberries give tanginess so it balances out the sweetness from the blondie batter itself. It also doesn’t hurt that it looks pretty too!

Notes:

• Whenever mixing, when dry ingredients are added, be careful not to overmix. This is because gluten forms when you overwork the dry ingredients, creating a hard product in the process.
• Strawberry jam can be substituted for other jams, but I suggest something that has tang or acidity to balance out the sweetness.
• Powdered sugar dusting is optional.
