Applebee's
White Chocolate & Walnut
Blondie
For
Applebee's regulars, this dessert is a favorite,.
In a hot skillet
comes a delicious slice of white chocolate and walnut cake with a scoop of
ice cream on top and warm maple butter sauce drizzled over the top. Ooh,
baby! To recreate this pile of pleasure at home you start by making the
cake from scratch.
For the white chocolate, get a couple of 4-ounce
bars or one 8-ounce bar and chop it into chunks. White chocolate chunks
work best in this recipe, but you can certainly use white chocolate chips
in a pinch. While the blondie cake is baking, whip up the sauce. The sauce
will be fluffy at first. But when you're ready to serve the dessert, zap
the sauce in the microwave until it's hot and creamy. Pile the decadent
thing up in a hot skillet and serve it sizzling to happy, drooling mouths.

1/2 cup

1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
2. To make the blondie cake whip the egg whites
until they are stiff and form peaks. Add softened butter, 1/2 cup packed
brown sugar, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and vanilla and mix with an
electric mixer until smooth. In a separate bowl sift together flour,
baking soda, baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add the dry ingredients
to the wet ingredients and mix well until smooth. Mix in milk, white
chocolate chunks and walnuts. Pour ingredients into a greased 9x13-inch
baking pan and bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until cake is golden brown on
top. Slice cake into 8 equal slices when cool.
3. While cake bakes, combine all ingredients for the
sauce in a medium bowl with an electric mixer.
4. To prepare dessert, heat a skillet in a hot oven
for 10 to 15 minutes (you can also serve the dessert on plate). Arrange
the cake on the skillet or plate. Heat up the sauce for 30 to 60 seconds
in the microwave until hot. Place a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the
cake, then drizzle some of the sauce over the top, followed by a
tablespoon of chopped walnuts. Serve immediately.
