and till now i'm still craving for it .. =p
hence i took a few hours from my " Lord's day " to bake my very own blondies =) ..
let's check out the ingredients needed ..
3/4 cup butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 eggs
2 - 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla powder
2 teaspoon unsweeten chocolate powder
dark chocolate
banana
To kick start ..
In a bowl .. add butter , brown sugar , vanilla powder and extract follow by eggs and beat until well blended smooth ..
next .. stir in flour ,chocolate powder , salt and baking powder until well combine ..
last but not least .. stir in chopped bananas and chopped dark chocolate ..
poured into a greased pan with butter and spread dough level in pan ..
bake at 350 degree for approx 20 - 25 mins until top is browned and a wooden skewer inserted in centre comes out with moist crumbs attached ..
cool on racks for 15 mins ..
then cut into rectangular ( your desire size ) before serving ..
there you go ...
i'm done !
featuring here today ..
DARK CHOCOLATE BLONDIES WITH BANANA
It's denser than chocolate chip cookies , more complex than brownies and in the classic minimalist style , you can customize it to any of your favorite flavors but i think banana and dark chocolate is a perfect marriage ! ..
Alright peeps ..
due to my busy schedules .. unfortunately
i'm not able to come out with fantastic recipes ..
once again .. hopefully this " unrefined " and "haste " job of mine
will still be relished =P
gtg ..
another hell week of work for me again ! =(
take care guys ...
have a wonderful week ahead .. cheerios ! ^^

Dear Duncan,
Your Blondies look great. Also, I feel that the irregular shapes of makes them look very rustic, 'home-made' and invokes to people the images of a dexterous and passionate baker.
However, my only grouse would have to be the addition of cocoa in your recipe. Like it's name sake, Blondies are meant to be er... blonde. They get the name from the pressence of brown sugar in the recipe. It's kinda like making Tiramisu with Earl Grey tea and a Lasagne with Penne pasta in it. : )
Take it easy ya?
I love Blondies too, I think it's the next best alternative for discerning eaters who are seeking the pleasure of downing a brownie sans the drowning sugary-kick.
Hey! here's a nice site which I stumble onto-
http://www.americanbrownieco.com/brownies.html
They carry a great range of interesting Brownies and Blondies.

what i like about your baking is that you always surprise us with your lovely creation and most importantly you have your own way of presenting it..
to me you always improvise the conventional bakings to your very own duncan style .. keep up the good works ! =)
heyz..i smell cakes..!
so quaint e name of the cakes called 'Blondies'...hehe... xD hmmm where do it originated frm..? nvm the little ones looks awesome wif dark chocs n bananas...pair wif wif latte will b great for a lazy afternoon tea..can we haf a sample of it..? hehe =P i shall bkmark it to my receipe list..haf a great day yo..cheerios.. ^-^
blondies are blonde not a very important issue .. most important is nothing restrict duncan's creation .. and creations mean new .. so are'nt you suppose to invent or change the original recipes ? yeah . love your baking ;)
H
oh~

Hi Duncan,
Saw you at play last sat... Wanna came up to you and say hi... but was pull away by my friend :(
You look great in person... heehee
Choco and Banana are the best combi... You are way cool...
hi
never had the chance to see you in real person.Perhaps, may go to play this coming saturday. If there is such `coincidence', may bump into you there. Not sure.
Well, noone will question your bakery skills. Have you thought of opening your own bakery shop? Just wonder .. For me, bakery is like a war zone to me. I better don't try and mess up the kitchen.
Justin
yeah im happy to hear that. (: really wish to see more of ur creations on dark chocz series. or perhaps tiramisu!? cheesecakes!? n more!? waiting.. (: at e same time, take good care dun over-exhaust urself.. not forgetting ur overloaded with work. haha..
