Gluten free blueberry lemon zest traybake

I was inspired by my gluten-free chocolate cake recipe and decided to create one using white chocolate. Also, I had a lot of white chocolate that is about to expire, so this recipe was perfect! As white chocolate is mainly sugar, I had several attempts at this recipe to make sure that it isn’t too sweet. This traybake is really  simple and quick to make and it makes the perfect party dessert.
