Ingredients

  • 0.75 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1.5 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup butterscotch chips
  • 0.5 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan, or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, whisk in the brown sugar until fully combined and smooth. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.

Step 3

Stir the vanilla extract into the butter-sugar mixture. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until smooth.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Gently stir in the butterscotch chips and chopped nuts (if using).

Step 7

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan and spread it out with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.

Step 10

Once cool, slice into squares or rectangles and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
