Happy Valentine's Day!
Just a quick post today, but to celebrate this wonderful occasion, I baked up a delicious batch of raspberry almond blondies. I'm one of those people who much prefer blondies to brownies, something about the sickly-sweetness I guess or the simple fact that blondies are essentially just baked brown sugar and butter - my favourite combination. The addition of the raspberries gives a much needed tartness to the bars and the aromatic roasted almonds elevate the texture and provide a nice, toasted flavour.
The recipe I used (which can be found here, from Tutti-Dolci) is a simple and quick one. Melted butter, rather than room temperature is used so you don't have to wait for it to soften. Making these perfect to prepare right now as a last minute Valentine's Day treat for someone special. Or just for yourself.
Have a lovely Valentine's day! Thank you for reading!
Oh wow, just by looking at them they look like they have interesting and fun flavours.
