Equipment

  • Kitchen Scales
  • Microwave
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Wooden Spoon
  • 20 cm (8'') Square Baking Tin
  • Baking Paper
  • Measuring Spoons

Ingredients

Metric - US Customary
  • 200 g Butter melted
  • 125 g Caster Sugar
  • 125 g Light Brown Sugar or use dark brown sugar
  • 2 Eggs
  • 2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 275 g Plain Flour
  • 100 g White Chocolate Chips
  • 180 g Mini Peanut Butter Cups or use peanut butter chips
  • 125 g Nutella softened in a microwave for 10 seconds

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C (160 fan/ 350F/ Gas 4) and line a small brownie tin or 20cm square baking tin with baking paper.
  • Melt the butter in a large microwave safe bowl. Beat in the caster sugar and light brown sugar until pale and fluffy (this should take 3-4 minutes).
  • Mix in the eggs.
  • Add the flour and vanilla extract and mix until combined.
  • Stir through the mini peanut butter cups and chocolate chips.
  • Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin.
  • Melt the nutella for 10 seconds in the microwave and dollop spoonful's onto the top of the blondie mix. Use a skewer to create swirls in the mixture.
  • Bake in the oven for 30 minutes and allow to cool completely before cutting into squares. I recommend placing them in the fridge (1 hour) or freezer (30 minutes) to help them set and make cutting easier.

Notes

Top tips:
  • The hardest part about making these blondies is leaving them long enough to cool. To speed up the process I recommend placing them in your freezer for 30 minutes or your fridge for an hour, before cutting them into bars.
  • To get those clean-cut lines, make sure the blondies are cool, and use a long sharp knife to cut them. Wipe the knife clean (be careful when doing this!) between each cut.
 
Variations:
  • Use plain chocolate spread instead of Nutella.
  • If you can't get hold of mini peanut butter cups, use peanut butter chips instead, or just up the quantity of chocolate chips.
  • Use a mixture of white, milk, and dark chocolate chips.
  • Once baked, scatter the top with crushed salted peanuts for added crunch and texture.
  • Use dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar for a darker, richer flavour to the Nutella blondies.
 
Freezing: The Nutella blondies can be frozen for up to 3 months.
