Blondies: The white chocolate version of brownies.
Sounds pretty tasty, says the girl who doesn't like white chocolate (it's not really chocolate!). But Gordon wouldn't be Gordon if he stopped there, so his blondies have dried cranberries too. Game on.
You know how good it smells when you melt butter and then you add sugar and vanilla extract to it? Yeah.
Next you whisk some eggs into the butter mixture, sift your dry ingredients - flour, baking soda, baking powder - together and combine everything, just like you would do with pretty much any other batter.
Here's where it gets cray cray; after letting the batter cool for a few minutes, pour in the white chocolate chips and cranberries.
It might make for a beautiful picture but it's still not real chocolate.
Anyways, now the batter goes into the oven to bake for about 40 minutes, assuming you have any left after sampling, that is. And if you're feeling artistic you can make a pretty design in the baking dish first:
While it's hard not to like uncooked batter (raw eggs and all) and ooey-gooey dessert that's right out of the oven, I found this recipe to be a bit underwhelming in the end. The cranberries seemed out of place, and did I mention that white chocolate isn't chocolate? Give me brownies any day.
