Blondies with white chocolate and fine vanilla, deliciously moist and pleasantly soft with a lightly golden top and a gentle buttery aroma. Cut into handy squares, they are perfect with coffee or as a fine sweet treat.
Preheat the oven to 175°C (top/bottom heat) or 155°C (fan/convection). Grease the pan well and line it completely with baking paper.
Melt 150 g white chocolate together with the butter over low heat, then let it cool for 10 to 15 minutes until the mixture is only lukewarm. Beat the eggs, egg white, vanilla sugar, and both sugars for 4 minutes until the mixture is noticeably lighter in colour and slightly thickened - do not beat longer. While mixing, gradually stir in the lukewarm chocolate-butter mixture.
Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt, then fold in briefly just until no streaks of flour remain - do not overmix. Roughly chop the remaining white chocolate (50 g) and fold it in. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and smooth the top. Tap the pan on the work surface 3 to 5 times so the batter settles evenly.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Remove when the edges are set and a wooden skewer comes out with moist crumbs, but no wet batter or greasy smear. The centre may still feel slightly soft - it will firm up as it cools. Let cool completely, then chill in the refrigerator for 30 to 60 minutes for clean, firm pieces. Afterwards, carefully lift the insert out of the pan.
Notizen
We decided to use a baking pan with removable inserts, so the blondies are portioned evenly. The key is to line the pan properly with baking paper and grease the dividers on both sides.Use a high-quality white chocolate, as it has a big impact on the flavour of these blondies.
