Beautifully sweet and perfect for a treat, these white chocolate raspberry blondies are great for a tea time snack, an after school snack or dessert. Or just enjoy one mid-morning with a cup of coffee!
I had to do some baking this week. The last cake I made was a fruit cake and my husband doesn't like fruit cakes. Unfortunately we have different taste in cakes and desserts and he feels he gets his favourites made far less often than I make desserts using my favourite flavours. Well that's understandable isn't it?
But this week I had to make something for him. You see, it was his birthday and I promised him I would make something he wanted. He requested blondies. He was specifically thinking of the blondies I have made for him in the past. These blondies.
Well, what's the fun in making something you have made before, even something as delicious as a blondie. I just couldn't stop myself. I just had to do a little experimenting and vary the recipe. In fact, I found a whole new recipe that was just crying out to me to be made. It was a blondie recipe but for white chocolate blondies with freeze-dried raspberries in them too. Now white chocolate and raspberry is a fantastic combination. I ran the idea past him.
How could he refuse? I made them quickly before he changed his mind.
What did we think of these white chocolate raspberry blondies?
I liked them. I would even have liked a few more raspberry bits in them. My husband thought there was enough raspberry flavour. I loved the soft moist cakiness of them. He loved the caramelised bits on the bottom where all the white chocolate chips had sunk to. I love cake and I would say these are my favourite ones. He still prefers the denser fudginess of my other blondies.
We were never going to agree over cake. I should have known you just can't please everyone with one blondie.

How sweet of you to cater to the hubby's tastes! I have to admit, I rarely do that for the.boy lol. These brownies look so good I think we both would love them, though!

Sneak some extra raspberries in there and then present them to your husband without telling him and see what he says! They sound delicious and I'm glad you got to make something you at least a little bit agreed on! Thanks for sharing them with the Biscuit Barrel =)

He'd probably just be happy to have blondies - any type of blondies! I think a few fresh raspberries would be nice in these as well though to add a bit of juciness.
