Ingredients

• 1 cup butter
• 2 cups brown sugar
• 1 large egg
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup butterscotch chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal of the bars.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips. The dough will be thick.

Step 7

Spread the dough evenly into the prepared baking dish using a spatula or your hands.

Step 8

Sprinkle the butterscotch chips evenly over the top of the dough, slightly pressing them into the surface.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares.

Step 11

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
