Method
-
Step 1
Heat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Lightly butter a 20cm square tin and line with baking paper.
-
Step 2
To make the blondies, beat the eggs and sugar in a large bowl using an electric whisk for 2-3 minutes or until pale and slightly fluffy. Add the melted butter and vanilla, and mix briefly to combine. Add the flour, baking powder and salt, and mix briefly into a soft batter. Add most of the white chocolate and cranberries, reserving a little of both for decoration. Scrape the batter into the prepared tin and spread into an even layer.

Step 3
For the cheesecake swirl, put all of the ingredients into a small bowl and stir until smooth and combined. You can dollop it randomly over the blondie batter, or pipe it on in stripes, then drag a cocktail stick through the lines, alternating the direction for a feathered design. Scatter over the reserved white chocolate and cranberries.

Step 4
Bake for 35 minutes until a skewer inserted into the blondies comes out with moist crumbs. Remove from the oven and leave to cool in the tin for 20 minutes before carefully transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into small squares to serve. The blondies will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for three days.
