Method
step 1
Heat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Using an electric whisk, beat the butter with the sugars until creamy and pale.
step 2
Beat in the vanilla, egg and white chocolate very briefly, then stir in the flour and bicarb to a soft dough.
step 3
Use your hands to work in the dark chocolate pieces, walnuts, raspberry bits and meringue chunks until evenly distributed.
step 4
Line 2 baking sheets with baking paper or silicone baking mats and use your hands to roll the dough into 12 balls, leaving a 5cm space between each.
step 5
Bake for 10-12 minutes until pale golden and puffed.
step 6
Leave to cool on the trays for at least 30 minutes before eating – this will help the centres firm-up into a blondie-like texture.
