Why You’ll Love This Recipe!

This Butterscotch Blondie recipe is one of those family favorite recipes and one I shared back in the very early beginnings of my blog. If you are looking for a non-chocolate bar cookie this recipe is perfect. Blondie shave a nice chewy center, just like a good brownie.

Traditionally blondies are made with brown butter which helps give them that butterscotch flavor. Today’s blondie also gets the butterscotch flavor from the butterscotch chips.

Ingredients

• All Purpose Flour
• Granulated Sugar
• Light Brown Sugar
• Butter
• Eggs
• Baking Soda
• Salt
• Vanilla Extract
• Butterscotch Chips
• Nuts

How to Make Butterscotch Blondies

• Prepare a 9 x 13 pan by spraying with non stick cooking spray or line with parchment paper.
• Beat butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar in large bowl until creamy. These bars have more brown sugar than granulated sugar and that gives them an extra depth of flavor. 
• Add eggs and vanilla extract and beat well 
• Stir together flour, baking soda and salt and  gradually add to butter mixture, blending well  Mix until the flour is just incorporated.
• Stir in butterscotch chips and nuts, if desired and spread batter into lightly greased 9 x 13 inch pan.

• Bake 30-35 minutes or until top is golden brown and center is set. Do not overbake. The bars should just begin to pull away from the sides of the pan.
• Cool completely in pan on wire rack before cutting into bars

Tips & Notes:

• Instead of butterscotch morsels add in white chocolate chips.
• You can also replace the chips with chopped pecans or walnuts.
• Instead of light brown sugar you can use dark brown sugar for a more intense flavor.
• I love to serve them warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top Drizzle the ice cream with some caramel sauce or butterscotch sauce.
• You can rewarm leftover blondies in the microwave for a few seconds.
