Galaxy Caramel chunks and Nutella. Do other people look at those ingredients and thing ‘hmmm they need cake to bring them together’. Or is that just the way my really greedy brain works?
These blondies are the kind of cake you need when you’ve had a bad day. Or maybe it just needs to be a bit cold and wet outside, and you want something to go with that pot of tea. Something that makes you glad it’s raining, and you’ve just eaten one, and there are still 11 pieces left.
To be perfectly honest, I don’t think these blondies need a reason to exist. I’m just making excuses so I can make them again! Well it’s half term at the moment. My kids spent most of their day in pyjamas playing video games whilst sampling various bits of recipes I’ve been making today. I’ve been trying to cook and photograph most of my recipes (for Kitchen Sanctuary and the other sites I write for) over 2 days recently. All in the hope I can write them up during the remaining 3 days of the week. I’ve got a feeling it’s not going to work out like that this week! We prepped them for a lazy day today by taking them out on a big adventure walk yesterday:
We all look pretty clean there, but we were filthy by the time we go back home! I expected the kids to sleep in this morning, but they were up before 7am, so I guess I’m going to have to think of a few things to wear them out this week! We could have done with some of these Caramel stuffed Nutella Blondies when we got back home, but by the time we got back we just wanted to flake out for a bit. Once the kids were in bed, Chris and I cooked the most amazing steak stroganoff together for our valentines day dinner. We must have looked so romantic, eating our stroganoff at the breakfast bar in our sweatpants cos we were too tired to bother dressing up 🙂
Just look at that inner gooeness! It’s no wonder they barely lasted a day before the cake tin was empty…….
