Ingredients
  

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted

1 cup packed light brown sugar

1/2 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup butterscotch chips

1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional, walnuts or pecans work well)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, letting some parchment hang over the sides for easy removal later.

    Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar, whisking until smooth and well combined. Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

      Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

        Mix Everything Together: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, folding gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be thick and slightly sticky.

          Add Butterscotch Chips: Fold in the butterscotch chips and nuts (if using) until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

            Pour the Batter: Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

              Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. The blondies should be slightly golden around the edges.

                Cool and Cut: Allow the blondies to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then lift them out using the parchment paper and let them cool completely on a wire rack. Once cool, cut into squares or rectangles.

                  Serve and Enjoy: Serve your chewy butterscotch blondies warm or at room temperature, and enjoy the delightful caramel-like flavor with a cup of your favorite beverage!
