1 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup granular sugar substitute
3 large eggs, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup Atkins Quick Quisine
TM Bake Mix
1/2 cup whole-wheat pastry flour
2 tablespoons gluten
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup lightly toasted walnuts, coarsely chopped
1 ounce unsweetened chocolate, melted
1. Heat oven to 325F. Line a 13-by-9-inch baking pan with
aluminum foil extending 2 inches over both short sides
of pan. Grease foil, and set aside.
2. Whisk butter, sugar substitute, eggs and vanilla extract
together in a large bowl. Whisk bake mix, pastry flour,
gluten, baking powder and cinnamon together in
another bowl; stir into butter mixture until well combined.
Stir in walnuts. Spread evenly into prepared pan. Bake
until puffed and set, and a toothpick inserted in center
comes out clean (top will not be browned), 12 to 14
minutes. Cool completely in pan on a wire rack.
3. Drizzle chocolate in thin lines over entire surface of
blondies. Let stand until set, about 1 hour. (The recipe
can be prepared up to this point, covered with plastic
wrap and stored at room temperature overnight.)
4. Firmly gripping the foil on both ends, lift blondies out of
pan, and place on work surface. Cut into 12 pieces, and
serve.
These nutty treats make a wonderful alternative to browniesand
a delectable party dessert. Prepare the blondies ahead of time
for fuss-free serving.
