Last Thursday I shared with everyone my love of Lotus Spread, now it's time to see what you can create with this super special secret ingredient!
What I love most about this recipe is how quick it is, and wait for it... For mixing it only takes one bowl and a spoon! Oh yes!!
I looked at some recipes which paired white chocolate with the salivating spread (too rich, I thought!) Others took loads of extra ingredients which I wasn't in the mood for (recipes that call for one egg plus an egg yolk infuriate me, what can I do with that egg yolk?!?!) So I adapted a few basic blondie recipes to come up with this beauty!
Before any purists get on their soapboxes, yes I am aware that there's no white chocolate in here so technically they're probably Biscoffies! ;) But they have the fab texture of a brownie with far less butter and sugar thanks to the texture of Lotus Spread. Also, chocolate-haters and plain Janes loved this creation so it will please everyone you come across... Hopefully!
You will need:
1 Cup self-raising flour (sieved)
1/3 Cup butter
1 Cup light brown sugar (packed)
2 eggs
1 Tsp vanilla extract (not pictured above because I'm a silly goose!)
3 Tbsps Lotus Smooth Spread
3 Tbsps Lotus Smooth Spread
2 Rolls Rolos
- Preheat oven to 175 degrees Celcius.
- Line 9x9 pan with baking parchment.
- Melt butter in a large mixing bowl in the microwave until partially melted.
- Stir in the brown sugar until mixed.
- Add eggs and vanilla extract and mix.
- Gently fold in the sieved flour, adding the flour gradually. This will form a thick batter, do not overmix!
- Gently fold in the Rolos, saving a few...
- Pour into the pan. Top with remaining Rolos.
- Bake for 25 mins, they will look soft and rather pale but will have almost doubled in size and will harden upon cooling.
- Allow to cool completely before cutting into squares.
So, take forty-five minutes out of your week and bake these!! Please let me know what you think of the recipe, and of course, Lotus Spread!
Stay sweet! x
