Butterscotch Blondies – soft and chewy blonde brownies that are loaded with butterscotch! A buttery and sweet treat that is easy to make!
My family loves blondies. I am usually a chocolate person when it comes to desserts, but there is something about a buttery and brown sugar based dessert that I love. And I will take blondies in any form! You can even add chocolate and make Chocolate Chunk Blondies!
When I was growing up the closest my mom ever made were these Fudge Nut Bars. They were a brown sugar and oatmeal based cookie that is absolutely amazing. Plus they have a layer of chocolate fudge, so you can win over all the chocolate lovers in you life!

Butterscotch is a really under rated flavor and needs to be in more desserts! These Butterscotch Cookies are always a hit around here, so it should come as no surprise that adding them to blonde brownie recipe would be a good idea!
How to Make Blondies
Blondies are one of the easiest desserts to make because you don’t need a mixer.
- Star by mixing together melted butter and brown sugar until it is nice and smooth.
- Next mix in the egg and vanilla until everything is well combined.
- The flour and salt get mixed in next. You don’t want to over mix here, just until everything is combined.
- Fold in the butterscotch chips and your batter is done.
- Pour into a line or well greased baking pan and bake for about 20-25 minutes until they are dry on the top and the edges are golden.
The brown sugar gives these so much flavor, they are just buttery and delicious! So they are great for anything you want to mix in! Like maybe Oreos? Oreo Blondies anyone?

This recipe has been on my blog since the very beginning, and now it is time for a face lift! We have new pictures and a recipe that you can actually follow and print out. Originally there was white chocolate chips in this recipe as well. And as good as that is, I kind of love just straight butterscotch. So I have updated the recipe after testing it more to make sure it as perfect!
This butterscotch blondie recipe comes together in just minutes. You can literally be eating them about 40 minutes after you have the idea to make them. And that includes a little cooling time! Which honestly as you smell the baking is by far the hardest part.

Flavor is good, but this recipe needs some sort of raising agent. The outside is overdone but the inside is still liquid-gooey.
Erin S says
I have not actually seen a blondie recipe with a raising agent in it before. If your was overdone, I suggest that you lower the oven temperature and cook for longer so the center has a chance to get cooked.
Beth says
