These festive fruity mincemeat blondies are not only utterly delicious and easy to make, but also a great way of using up leftover mincemeat. All the flavours of a mince pie in blondie form!
Preheat the oven to 180°c (160 fan/ 350F/ Gas 4) and line an 8"/20cm square baking tin with non stick baking paper.
Melt the butter in the microwave in 20 second bursts, stirring each time.
Beat the light brown sugar, egg and vanilla extract into the melted butter until everything is combined.
Stir in the salt, plain flour and mixed spice then fold in the mincemeat and white chocolate chips if using.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin and bake in the oven for 25 minutes. Leave to cool completely before cutting into squares.
