This Cherry Bakewell Blondies recipe is so easy to make and is a real taste of nostalgia. An Almond Blondie swirled with cherry jam and topped with vanilla icing.

I have used Just Flavour Almond for this recipe. See our full range of Just Flavour here!

Ingredients

  • 240g butter
  • 360g soft brown sugar
  • 2lg eggs
  • 1 1/2 tsp Just Flavour Almond
  • 210g Plain flour
  • 1/2tsp baking powder
  • 9tsp Cherry jam
  • 200g Velvet Vanilla Natural Flavoured Icing Sugar
  • Up to 4tbsp boiling water
  • 9 Glacé cherries

Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 175 and line a 9″ by 9″ brownie tin with greaseproof paper (leaving a bit of over hang to help you remove the blondie from the tray).
  2. In a large bowl, add the butter and sugar. Microwave until the butter is melted and give it a good mix.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time and beat the mixture well.
  4. Now you can sift in the flour, Just Flavour, and baking powder. Give the mixture a really good beat.
  5. Pour the batter into your lined brownie tin and spread evenly.
  6. Spoon the cherry jam in blobs onto the blondie batter so that when divided into 9 there will be jam in the middle of each square. Now swirl the jam through the blondie mix using a skewer.
  7. Bake for 30-45 mins until a skewer comes out with moist crumbs.
  8. Allow to cool completely in the tin. Chilling your blondie in the fridge can help achieve that Fudgey middle.
  9. Once completely cool you can make the topping.
  10. In a small bowl, combine the icing sugar and water, just adding a little water at a time. stop adding water once a thick but pourable consistency has been achieved.
  11. Spoon a little icing onto the brownie in 9 blobs over where you previously swirled in the jam.
  12. Top each icing blob with a glacé cherry.
  13. Slice and serve! Enjoy your Cherry Bakewell Blondies!
