Description

These butterscotch brownies are dense, chewy blondies packed with deep, rich caramel notes that satisfy any sweet tooth. Recreating the comforting flavors of a home kitchen, this recipe uses a one-pot approach for simplicity while delivering a reliable, consistent texture. Perfect for family gatherings or cozy evenings, these treats highlight the beauty of pantry staples like brown sugar and high-quality butter to create a crowd-pleasing dessert that is as easy to clean up as it is to bake.


Ingredients

Scale

3/4 cup butter, softened
3 cups brown sugar, packed
3 large eggs
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract


Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
Spray a 9×13 inch pan with non-stick spray or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the softened butter, brown sugar, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the butter mixture, stirring until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
Bake for 30 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
Allow the brownies to cool slightly in the pan before slicing into squares.

Notes

Ensure your butter and eggs are at room temperature for the best emulsion. Do not overmix the batter after adding the flour, as this keeps the brownies chewy rather than cakey. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
