- 50 g of light brown sugar
- 3 eggs
- 175 g plain flour sifted
Ladyfingers

Instructions
Blondies
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan (350°F). Line a 9x9-inch square baking tin and set aside.
- Add the butter and white chocolate to a heatproof bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each round, until fully melted and smooth.
- Allow the melted mixture to cool slightly, so the heat doesn't cook the eggs.
- Then, stir in the sugar until fully combined.
- Add the eggs and whisk for 2-3 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- Fold in the sifted flour and mix for another 2-3 minutes, or until a thick blondie batter forms.
- Pour the blondie batter into the lined baking tin and bake for 22-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centre is lightly golden. It should jiggle slightly in the middle.
- Let the blondies cool completely to create the perfect base for the mascarpone layer.
Mascarpone filling
- While the blondies cool, prepare the mascarpone cream topping. Whisk the heavy or double cream until stiff peaks form. Add the mascarpone and vanilla extract, then whisk for 1-2 minutes, or until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
- Dip each ladyfinger into cooled brewed coffee. Arrange the soaked ladyfingers in a single layer on top of the blondie base.
- Spread the mascarpone cream evenly over the ladyfingers, smoothing evenly.
- Cover the tin with plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes to help the layers set.
- Once chilled, remove your tiramisu blondies from the fridge and dust generously with cocoa powder. Slice into equal squares for serving.
- Serve and enjoy! These rich, chewy tiramisu blondies.
Notes
- Brewed coffee: Let the coffee cool completely before dipping the ladyfingers, hot coffee will cause them to become too soft and fall apart.
- Whipped cream: Whisk the cream until stiff peaks form, then combine it with the mascarpone. This ensures the mascarpone mixture stays firm, creamy, and stable.
- Chill: After adding the mascarpone cream to the tiramisu blondies, refrigerate them for at least 30 minutes to help the layers set before serving.
