Butterscotch Blondie Brownies Recipe



Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

1/2 cup butter
1 cup butterscotch chips
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups miniature marshmallows
1 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips

1. Grease a 9x13 inch pan.
2. Using a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butterscotch chips and butter together in the microwave, stirring occasionally until smooth. Set aside to cool.
3. In a large bowl, stir together the brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Mix in the melted butterscotch chips, then the flour, baking powder, and salt until smooth. Stir in the marshmallows and chocolate chips last. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
4. Bake for 20 minutes in preheated oven. Cool, and cut into squares.

**Cooking for 20 minutes makes really gooey bars. If you want them a bit more solid, cook them for a bit longer.**

2) mmmm...I now want to make them...I can go off my diet for one day right? lol

3) The only problem with that theory is the recipe makes an entire pan of blondies. They're so tempting...I had one bite this afternoon, and suddenly I couldn't stay away from the pan.

4) Butterscotch is that kind of flavor to me. I know people love chocolate but I have to admit that butterscotch/caramelized brown-sugar type things really do it more for me. Maybe I'll need these on that desert island of Merrick's.

5) lol..I guess that means if I make them, my diet is blown until I eat them all...which considering my lack of self control when it comes to food, the pan will be gone in 2 days...lol

6) I love butterscotch. I still love chocolate, don't get me wrong, but lately, I've been wanting the butterscotch flavor. I might actually like these better than chocolate brownies, which says a lot.

rangywulf, Chris and I are the same way; that's why I have to get food out of the house when I make it. We just keep picking until it's gone...usually two days or so.

7) My stepdad bought a bread maker a couple of months ago. He makes something every other day with it...It's nearly impossible in this house not to have any high carbs...my poor thyroid doesn't know what to do with itself anymore...

10) They're really good, but very rich. I love the marshmallow in them because it makes them sticky gooey...my favorite kind of baked good.

11) Totally off topic here, Mrs. Shoo, but wanted to tell you that I read The Time Traveler's Wife this past weekend. I really enjoyed it. It kept me up until 6am one night, er, morning. Great suggestion.

13) It's one of my favorites. I keep hoping she writes another book.

14) I liked Time Traveler's Wife too and that was after I put it down, didn't like it, talked to Merrick about how much she liked it and tried it again. Maybe because I listened to it. LOL

Never had a butterscotch brownie with marshmallows--that sounds like a fun idea. Rich it would be, but rich is good at times, right? :)
