Jammie Dodger blondies with a soft, fudgy base swirled with raspberry jam, white chocolate chunks, freeze-dried raspberries and Jammie Dodger biscuits.
Jammie Dodger Blondies
Jammie Dodger blondies are definitely a must-try, and this recipe is always a huge hit with my family! I’ll admit it, I’m a total sucker for a Jammie Dodger, so expect plenty more Jammie Dodger inspired bakes coming your way this year. If you’ve been following me over on Instagram, you’ll know just how much you all love blondies and are constantly asking for more… and of course, I’m very happy to deliver!
These Jammie Dodger blondies are soft, fudgy, and packed with irresistible raspberry flavour. To achieve that bold fruity taste without affecting the texture, I use freeze-dried raspberries instead of fresh or frozen ones. This keeps the blondie batter perfectly thick and fudgy while still delivering that delicious raspberry hit. If you prefer, you can also use a raspberry flavouring, my go-to is always Foodie Flavours!
The blondie base is loaded with creamy Milkybar white chocolate (my absolute favourite white chocolate ever), which pairs beautifully with the tangy raspberry and sweet jam flavours. And of course, no Jammie Dodger blondie would be complete without being topped with those iconic, heart-shaped biscuits we all know and love.
This easy blondie recipe is perfect all year round, simple, nostalgic, and incredibly delicious. It also makes a gorgeous bake for Valentine’s Day, thanks to those signature heart Jammie Dodgers, making it ideal for gifting to loved ones or serving at special occasions. If you love easy traybakes, fudgy blondies, and classic biscuit flavours, these Jammie Dodger blondies need to be at the top of your baking list!
Blondies
For all of my blondie recipes, I always start with a white chocolate blondie base. This means melting white chocolate together with the butter before adding it to the batter, and honestly, it’s a game changer. Using white chocolate in the base creates a much more stable blondie that sets beautifully, slices cleanly, and delivers that perfectly fudgy, melt-in-the-mouth texture every time. It also adds a subtle sweetness that enhances the overall flavour without overpowering the add-ins.
You can try making these blondies without the white chocolate, but I can’t promise the same results, this method is what gives my blondies their signature texture and structure.

Ingredients
- Unsalted butter– Provides richness and moisture to your blondies. Using unsalted allows you to control the saltiness and enhances the buttery flavour. I recommend using block butter but you could use baking spread as well.
- White chocolate (melted into the butter)– Melting the chocolate with the butter creates a stable, fudgy base and gives the blondies that soft, chewy texture we all love. I recommend using a cheap supermarket own chocolate as this sets the base better.
- Caster sugar– Adds sweetness, helps with structure, and contributes to a slightly crisp top while keeping the centre soft and gooey.
- Eggs (2 eggs + 1 yolk)– Eggs bind the ingredients together while giving richness and structure. The extra yolk ensures a dense, fudgy texture.
- Plain flour– Provides structure without making the blondies dense. Helps the base hold together.
- Cornflour (cornstarch)– Key for thick, soft blondies. It keeps the centre tender and adds that melt-in-the-mouth texture.
- White chocolate chunks– Adds pockets of gooey, melty chocolate throughout, complementing the raspberry and jam flavours.
- Freeze-dried raspberries– Concentrated raspberry flavour without adding extra moisture, which helps the blondies hold their shape. Adds a natural tartness to balance the sweetness.
- Raspberry jam– Creates a gooey swirl and intensifies the raspberry flavour. Perfect for that iconic Jammie Dodger taste.
- Jammie Dodgers (for topping)– The star decoration! Adds nostalgia, crunch, and that classic heart-shaped biscuit element that makes these blondies instantly recognisable.
Why Use Freeze-Dried Raspberries?
Freeze-dried raspberries are the secret to bold raspberry flavour without ruining the texture of your blondies. Fresh or frozen raspberries add too much moisture, which can prevent blondies from setting properly. Freeze-dried fruit gives you intense flavour while keeping the blondies thick, fudgy, and perfectly sliceable.
Tips & Tricks
- Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for longer freshness.
- Use freeze dried raspberries or raspberry flavouring instead of fresh or frozen raspberries. If you want a more subtle raspberry flavouring, just use the jam!
- Don’t overbake! Slightly under baked blondies will set as they cool and stay fudgy.
- Refrigerate! Make sure to chill your blondies in the fridge for at least 3-4 hours or overnight for best results!
- I mix my blondies just until the ingredients are combined. Some recipes say to whip up your eggs or butter until light and fluffy but this isn’t Necessary for these blondies!
- Let them cool fully before slicing for clean edges.
- Make sure to use the right sized baking tin. I use a 9×9″ square tin for these blondies. This is the tin I use.
Frequently Asked Questions
How Do I Know If My Blondies Are Baked?
This is one of the hardest things when it comes to baking blondies, knowing when to take them out at the right time. Using a skewer won’t help as blondies will still be gooey, similar to a brownie when they’re removed from the oven! They should have a slight wobble in the middle when you remove them from the oven, They will also set more as they cool down, wait until they are cool and put them in the fridge for 3-4 hours to ensure you get the BEST blondie texture. (Put it in the fridge still in the tin).
What Is The Difference Between Blondies And Brownies?
Blondies are made with white chocolate instead of cocoa and dark chocolate. They have a rich, buttery, and sweet vanilla flavour compared to the fudgy, chocolatey taste of brownies.
Why Did My Blondies Come Out Cakey Instead Of Fudgy?
Cakey blondies may result from over-mixing or over-baking. Be sure to mix just until combined and bake until just set in the centre. Also make sure you’re using plain flour instead of self raising flour!
Can I use fresh or frozen raspberries instead of freeze-dried?
Freeze-dried raspberries are best because they won’t release extra moisture, keeping your blondies thick and fudgy. Fresh or frozen raspberries can make the blondie mixture too wet and affect the bake.
Can I make these blondies without Jammie Dodgers?
Absolutely! You can leave them off or swap them for other biscuits, chocolate pieces, or even extra freeze-dried raspberries for decoration.
How do I store Jammie Dodger Blondies?
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4–5 days. You can also refrigerate for up to a week or freeze for 2–3 months.
Can I substitute the cornflour?
Cornflour helps keep the blondies soft and thick. If you don’t have it, you can slightly increase the plain flour, but the texture may be less melt-in-the-mouth.
Can I make these blondies ahead of time?
Definitely! Make the blondie base a day ahead, chill, and bake the next day. You can also swirl in the jam and decorate with Jammie Dodgers after baking.
