Another 40th birthday, and this time I opted to make some blondies with a loving message on the top.
I made the letters for the top and kept them in the freezer until ready. They were literally just made by melting white chocolate and using a silicon letter mold.
The blondie recipe is from Jane’s Patisserie, but I mixed the chocolate chunks instead of just white chocolate. Mine have milk, dark and blonde chocolate chunks as well as some Biscoff biscuits.
You can see the mix-ins in this picture:
I topped the blondies with a ganache made from Blonde chocolate and double cream (3:1 ratio). I made around 420g of ganache so weighed out into 70g portions and coloured them with oil-based colours.
I piped rough stripes diagonally across the blondies whilst still in the pan and allowed to set slightly before adding the lettering.
I liked how the lines ended up – very trippy!
I finished the blondies with edible glittery.
The recipient took this picture of the sliced blondie this morning – and it looks great if I do say so myself!
