Kiddo was 2 bites in and announced,
"I will PAY you to make more of these."
Ok. Deal. What do you think I should charge? $2? $10? A promise he'll come home every weekend when he's away at college? A promise that he'll let me choose his bride, her dress, and provide me with at least one granddaughter since my sister & I have all boys and need to buy some pink and tutus?
Yeah, that ought to do it.
The dangerous thing about these bars is...they are SO easy to make. You won't even need your mixer....just a bowl and a spoon.
Now, you will be using Imitation Butter Flavoring.
I know, it sounds a little scary. I'm not asking you to drink it straight up. You'll use a teaspoon. And, if you cut your blondies into 24 squares, you'll only consume 1/24th of a teaspoon in each one. It's totally worth it.
Here's the recipe...you don't even have to pay me.
Salted Butterscotch Blondies
ingredients:
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
2 cups dark brown sugar, lightly packed
1/2 tsp. kosher salt
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. butter flavoring
1 & 1/2 cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
3 eggs, lightly beaten
12 ounces butterscotch chips
1/4 tsp. flaky sea salt
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease a 9x13" pan. Set aside.
Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Once melted, pour the butter into a bowl and stir in the sugar, salt, baking powder, vanilla and butter flavoring until combined.
Stir in the flour, and then the lightly beaten eggs. Stir until thoroughly combined. Stir in the butterscotch chips.

I, too, think that oughta do!!! I will try this recipe, and think what I will charge in case they like it ;)
ReplyDeleteThese sound very good. How different would the taste be if I didn't have any flaky salt? Could I just sprinkle on some regular sea salt? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteButterscotch is one of my favorite flavors EVER! I don't bake much with it since no one in my family likes it but me. However... these bars look good enough I might have to make a batch just for myself :)
ReplyDeleteI think my husband started drooling when I described these to him...thank you for sharing another *awesome* recipe!! :)
ReplyDeleteThese are absolutely lovely! They sound delightful!
ReplyDeleteWell, I wasn't singing James Taylor until you mentioned it.
ReplyDeleteAnd I actually exclaimed out loud with glee when I saw the Butter Flavoring.
i went out and got the ingredients tonight to make these...may be up late making them...they sound incredible.
ReplyDeleteIf these taste as good as your peanut butter squares then I'm in!
ReplyDeleteI love this post!
ReplyDeleteNice! I just made a pan of blondies this week because my husband ate all the cookies in the house and I wanted something sweet. I'm adding these to the cookbook - I don't like chocolate much, so I'm always happy to find good chocolate-free recipes!
ReplyDeleteHaha! We totally *test* all sweets leaving our abode!! These look supery moisty! I think my grandson would pay me to make these. :)
ReplyDeleteHow to Make Money with Your Favorite Homemade Recipes. Your recipes really ..... My teenage sons wanted a chocolate fondue; one had won a 400 gram Toblerone chocolate bar as a prize. ... Chocolate and Butterscotch Brownies ..... Light salted and roasted choice, #1 Grade, Mammoth pecan halves.
ReplyDeleteI actually imitation butter flavoring quite a bit...and it's great on popcorn to really BOOST the butter flavor to a new level when mixed in with some real butter.
ReplyDeleteAnd that N.M. vanilla is the bomb.
And butterscotch...oh I love it..these look perfect for me!
I will try it. Nice recipes...
ReplyDeleteMust. Try. These!!
ReplyDeleteLIKEY LIKE. I've never tried using butter flavouring before mebbe will buy it for this recipe.
ReplyDeleteThese sound wonderful (I'm all about the salty-sweet combo). I've pinned them so i don't forget to make them (as if I could forget....)
ReplyDeleteHa ha - yes pick the dress and demand a female grandchild! LOL These bars sound fabulous!
ReplyDeleteMy husband has a strict policy that anything I put pn my blog must first go in his belly. If he sees somethong on there that he didn't taste he is appalled. :) Seriously this recipe looks so good that I'm pretty sure it would be a do-over...meaning the whole pan would be eaten before I snapped pictures.
ReplyDeletelove love love blondies! Those photos look absolutely incredible - all gooey and sticky and delicious.

ReplyDeleteThis is my new blog, hope you enjoy!
haha.. yes you should make money for this blondies!! :)
ReplyDeleteIn the oven at this very moment!
ReplyDeleteOh yes please! I am all about flaky sea salt. IS that weird?
ReplyDeleteThese are making my mouth water, and I'm not much for brownies/blondies...
ReplyDeleteI love the title. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I love that this uses a slightly unusual extract that I actually have. Yay! I got the butter extract when I took Wilton courses a few years ago and they told me that I just had to use the Wilton buttercream icing (which tastes like shortening and sugar) and that the butter extract was needed for it. I tried that buttercream and refused to make it again. So I have a whole bottle sitting here. Woohoo! These just went to the top of my to-do list. I have a few bags of butterscotch chips that I've been hoarding and now I have the perfect use. I *love* butterscotch. I just want to bathe in the stuff.
Yummy!
ReplyDeleteSigh. There went my low carb diet. :) I *love* blondies, and I *LOVE* butterscotch.
ReplyDeleteWow, I bet you could make some good money with those. The flaky sea salt is what really gets me. I'm already eating these in my mind:)

These look soooo good. I'm not surprised your child is offering to pay although I'm a little curious which condition was accepted under your terms, hehe.

Bridget, you are TOO funny. I know you have just kiddo, so I say, yeah...milk him for all he's worth. I've got my 5 kids, and I sure plan to do exactly the same thing! And, we ADORE brownies around here...so this one will be bookmarked for sure.
ReplyDeleteThese. Sound. Amazing. I LOVE butterscotch! I just bought a bunch to make a cake. But these bars are a must make for me!!!
ReplyDeleteMake him let you pick the wife! If you choose your daughter-in-law, the world will be happy!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous gorgeous gorgeous! And delicious I am sure!
ReplyDeleteI just made them, pretty darn good. The only thing I didn't have was unbleached flower, so I would suggest to anyone using bleached flour, cut it back by 1/4 to 1/2 a cup.
ReplyDeleteFor something really special, try putting a fat dollop of Häagen-Dazs créme brulée ice cream on top of a square when it's still warm from the oven, I did and it was absolutely scrumptious. That's a combination you could serve for dessert at the end of dinner and your guests will be delighted.
I'm seeing Blondies everywhere, and I have yet to make one yet. Never even tried a blondie. It's the first item on m y to do list :)
ReplyDeleteI will pay you to make me some of those!
ReplyDeleteButterscotch brownies are one of my most favorite treats. It is so hard to wait for them to be cool enough to eat after they come out of the oven.
ReplyDeleteI'm sold! Please send me a box of those! ;)
ReplyDelete"Happy Cooking"
Dang! I've been looking all over for a good blondies recipe, and here it is! My mom used to make a similar version when I was a kid, but she lost the recipe, and it is gone forever. I have to try this!
ReplyDeleteOh, these look divine! No wonder they'd offer to pay you to make them. I have my eye on a new purse, maybe I should see if bribery works around here too. :)
ReplyDeletethey are look very delicious .and i want some
ReplyDeleteI will pay you to send me some!! :)
ReplyDeleteOh ho ho, these look lethal. Like too good. I am loving the addition of sea salt too!

You might get your wish with the granddaughter someday. : ) My husband is one of three boys and all my mother-in-law wished for was a girl and she has 3 granddaughters so far now!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the blondie recipe! I have renewed my relationship with my mixer and I've made 4 of your delicious recipes so far and all have been quite tasty! Thank you again!
I just made these and they're heavenly. The only thing I don't like is that I just consumed 1/2 cup of sugar, excluding the butterscotch chips. Whoops. I guess I need to learn to have some self-control. So, if you have self-control, you have to make these and try to ration them somehow. They're absolutely amazing! Butterscotch is probably my favorite stand alone flavor and these brownies definitely satisfied my need for butterscotch. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot Bridget.. I knew reading your posts at 9PM was a bad idea. Now I'm just a pregnant lady sitting here wishing I had butterscotch cookies! :( lol CRAVING.
ReplyDeleteButterscotch Blondies. *pregnant brain.
DeleteI think your deal sounds reasonable:) Your blondies look so rich and gooey! YUM!
ReplyDeleteP.S. FYI...Years ago I went to a concert and Carole King & James Taylor sang "You've Got a Friend" TOGETHER! :)
I love you blog, it is amazing, please subscribe to mine if you want. I'm new and I would love to have some feedback.

ReplyDeleteThey are poverty myths because they are inimical to financial success. There are more poor people than rich people in every society because these myths, which are poverty catalysts, are more common than Wealth Myths.Atrie krediti
ReplyDeleteIt's great to have some additional income because it allows you to avoid financial difficulties. And I experience the now, last month I had to borrow money because I couldn't pay my bills. Just hate this situation.
ReplyDeleteNow you can make money literally from anything. I have chosen trading and earlier it was rather difficult but now I have cryptocurrency trading bot which is able to ease my process of work significantly.
ReplyDeleteThere are so many ways you have share here! Very interesting!
ReplyDeleteQuite interesting post! I don't know how to make money online, but it is quite useful info for me. I only can play in casino and win some money on www.mr.bet/ca/casino/type/slot their slots are really so cool! What do you think about this?
ReplyDeleteWhen your child knows what it means to buy things and pay money, it is worth being wary when he sits on the Internet. Not even an hour, he will find an online casino where he will spend money. To prevent this from happening, visit the site https://slots-online-canada.com/free-slots/penny-slots/ which has reviews on casino slots and free slots that you can play without money! Just in case.

ReplyDeleteif you wanna make money online you need to develop your skills and abilities first
ReplyDeleteThe realities of modern life dictate their rules to us. Often, we are forced to have a source of additional income in the era of capitalism, when inflation draws all savings. And when they come to an end, I had to apply for a microloan in https://allthebestloans.com/loan/pesoloan/
ReplyDeleteAn interesting idea, quite tempting, I certainly do everything at Playamo, but I want to try your venture
