These little beauties are a slightly lighter than the traditional brownie and have a gorgeous caramel flavour. Delicious. I think we’re all entitled to our blonde moments, don’t you?

2 Eggs,
200g
½ tsp
90g
90g Granulated sugar
Water
Unsalted butter
Light brown sugar
Lightly beaten
Self-raising flour
Salt
Walnuts, chopped
Dark chocolate, roughly chopped

Have a blondie moment:

Heat the granulated sugar and the water gently in a saucepan to melt the sugar. Swirl the pan and take it of the heat when the colour of the sugar darkens to a caramel colour. Allow to cool
Cream the butter, then beat in the brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Gradually add the eggs to the creamed mixture. Stir in the caramel, heating gently to thin it again, if it has become too thick to pour easily. If it’s still warm add a little bit at a time.
