Ingredients
- ½ cup salted butter , softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup light brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ cup butterscotch chips
- Optional: Serve with Ice Cream and Butterscotch Sauce
Butterscotch Sauce:
- ½ cup salted butter , at room temperature
- 1 cup dark brown sugar
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 3 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Add the butter, sugar and brown sugar to a mixing bowl and cream together until very smooth.
- Add egg and vanilla and mix well.
- Add flour and baking powder and stir until combined.
- Fold in butterscotch chips (keep a small handful to sprinkle on top).
- Spread into a greased square (8 or 9 inch) baking pan and bake for about 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Allow to cool before cutting into bars.
For the Butterscotch Sauce:
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
- Add the sugar and cream and stir well with a wooden spoon until blended.
- Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat and boil for about 5 minutes, stirring often.
- Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. The sauce will thicken as it cools.
- Serve warm over ice cream.
- To store, refrigerate sauce in an air-tight container.
Notes
- Storing Instructions: Keep butterscotch blondies in an airtight container at room temperature. I think they taste best the day they are made, otherwise freeze them, for best results. Refrigerate homemade butterscotch syrup in an air-tight container.
- Freezing Instructions: Cover pan with a double layer of aluminum foil, or store cut bars in an air-tight freezer-safe container. Freeze bars for up to 3 months.
- To double the recipe, bake in a 9x13 inch pan
