Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 1/2 cups dark brown sugar , packed
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter , melted and cooled slightly
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups butterscotch chips , divided

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13 baking dish with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray, set aside.
  • In a medium-sized bowl stir together the flour, baking powder, and salt until combined, set aside.
  • In a large bowl whisk together the brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet and stir them together until there are no dry patches. Add 1 & ½ cups of the butterscotch chips and fold them in until evenly distributed.
  • Spread the batter into the prepared baking dish, I find it easier to do with moistened hands. Take a handful of the remaining butterscotch chips and sprinkle it over the batter for a pretty presentation.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes until the top appears dry and set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let them cool completely in the pan. Take the bars out using the parchment paper to help you lift them out. Cut into bars.
  • Place the remaining butterscotch chips into a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring in between until melted. Place the melted butterscotch into a piping bag or ziplock bag and cut a small piece of the corner off. Drizzle over the cut bars, let them set for about 20 minutes so the butterscotch on top solidifies, and serve immediately.
