Butterscotch Blondies
BUTTERSCOTCH BLONDIES
You might be asking, what are blondies? Well, they are similar to brownies without the chocolate. I like to say if a cake and a brownie had a baby, it would be a blondie, kinda :) They are extremely easy to make and so delicious! Actually, blondies were around before chocolate brownies came along, which I didn’t know. I use to eat these as a kid and always loved them. You can get creative with these and use chocolate chips, pecans or white chocolate. I used butterscotch since I love the buttery flavor. Start by adding 1 1/2 cup of brown sugar to a bowl.
Melt 1 stick of butter and add it to the brown sugar. Using a hand mixer or a whisk, mix the butter into the brown sugar.
Add 2 whole eggs and 1 egg yolk to the mixture and mix them in one at a time. Add 1 tsp of vanilla to the batter and mix well. Make sure not to over beat the eggs.
Sift in 1 1/4 cup of flour and 1 tsp of baking powder.
Using a rubber baking spatula, fold the flour into the batter.
Add 1 1/2 cup of butterscotch chip morsels to the batter and fold it into the batter.
line a 9x12 baking sheet with cooking spray and wax paper.
Spread the batter evenly into the pan.
Add to a 350 degree oven and cook for 23-25 minutes, be sure not to over cook. Check the middle of the batter with a toothpick, if the toothpick is clean, take the blondies out of the oven.
Allow the blondies to cool and cut them into even squares.
Serve with ice cream and ENJOY!
