One top tip is if they've been in for the 25-30 minutes, and you're still not sure, let them cool outside of the oven fully and then put them in the fridge for at least an hour to 'set'. It can firm them right up! Over night in the fridge is best. I have a thing for blondies as they are such an easy traybake to make, but also just so good! They are fudgey, sweet, and incredibly moreish. With a custard twist, they are even better! Honestly, I know you will enjoy them. For this recipe I used a 9″ square tin (23cmx23cm), and lined it with parchment paper. You can easily use a ‘brownie’ tin that is 7×11″ as this will take the same time, and have the same results. I mean… I couldn’t resist. You guys LOVED my Biscoff Rice Krispie treats, and my Nutella Rice Krispie treats… so why not make an easter version?! Look at how good they look! Also, they are so simple to make. Almond and jam… a delicious combination. Usually there is a pastry base, a jam layer, and almond filling, and decoration on top. These blondies are basically the same, just without the pastry!
SERVE. Slice it up in 9 or 16 pieces depending on how many people you plan on serving it to. I was instructed to cut BIG pieces because my kiddos have eyes bigger than their teeny little stomachs. I always use a 9×9″ square tin when making these and other traybake as it creates the perfect depth of bake. Whatever cake recipes are in your repertoire, or whatever cakes you’re thinking about making as you start to get into the art of baking, surely chocolate brownies are counted among them. A natural favourite for kids and adults alike, they’re easier to make and even easier to portion out. With a Lakeland brownie traybake tin, you’ve got the perfect purpose designed tin to turn that chocolatey goodness into chocolatey greatness. Learn how to easily make substitutions with this list of baking pan sizes – learn which ones you can switch and sub and which you can’t! Deciding what shape your cake is going to be is one thing, but how big are you planning to make it? If you use a cake tin that’s too small, all that lovely cake batter will rise over the sides of the tin. Too big, and the sides shield the cake mix from the oven and slow the baking time right down. That’s why, at Lakeland, our range of cake tins feature all shapes and sizes, from 6 inch cake tins for personal puds, 8 inch cake tins for cakes big enough for two, all the way up to 25cm cake tins that are ideal for making tiered wedding cakes.
How to Make It
This is a very rich, moist cake with an intense chocolate flavor. You can make it more mild by substituting regular cocoa for the Dutch-process cocoa (which is really rich) and using boiled water in place of espresso. But if you want rich, keep it as it is. Like always, my bakes are customisable and delicious – you can use any other biscuit you fancy! I have a recipe for Jammie Dodger blondies on my blog and they are just heavenly!
Don’t forget, brownies aren’t the only square-shaped cake out there. Whether you’re making a fruit cake or a wedding cake, you’ll find a wide selection of sandwich tins and rectangular baking tins right here.

Don't allow the baking pans to touch each other or the walls of the oven. Those parts of the pan might cook faster due to the extra heat. For the best results, make sure you have enough space in your oven to bake the cakes without touching anything. Shiny metal pans and dark metal pans cook differently. Dark pans cook the outsides of the cake faster than the shiny ones do. Know your pans and adjust accordingly: turn the oven down 25 F when using a dark metal pan. Make sure to zest your lemons first, and then juice them – the amount of lemons may vary because of the sizing – but it’s about 5 lemons you use. I grate my lemon zest on the fine one so the pieces aren’t too large! I’m right there with you! I love a good three layer cake (hello pistachio cake), but I’m ALL about desserts you can make on a whim. Nothing too fussy, no hard to find ingredients, and nothing overly time consuming. I have three little children after all!!
