They can be prepared in under an hour and require minimal prep. There\u2019s no need to roll out dough balls, giving you more time to experiment and have fun with the mix-ins. We stick to simple additions like chocolate chips and Heath bars, but you can also incorporate other ingredients such as marshmallows, pistachios or peanut butter swirls.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Butterscotch Brownies Ingredients<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>All-purpose flour:<\/strong> We prefer using it because it helps develop that soft, tender, cakey texture in these butterscotch brownies.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Brown sugar:<\/strong> The brown sugar contributes to the nostalgic caramelized flavors of these butterscotch brownies.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Baking powder:<\/strong> Baking powder is required in the batter for these butterscotch brownies to rise.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Butter:<\/strong> This recipe uses melted butter to infuse rich and comforting flavors into this butterscotch brownie.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Eggs:<\/strong> The eggs in this recipe make this butterscotch brownie chewy and not too cakey.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vanilla extract:<\/strong> We toss some vanilla extract into the batter to enhance the buttery and caramel flavors.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chocolate chips:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/top-10-butterscotch-dessert-recipes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/top-10-butterscotch-dessert-recipes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Butterscotch<\/a> and chocolate are dynamic, so we make sure to fold chips into the batter.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Heath bar:<\/strong> We crumble this delicious chocolate bar stuffed with toffee and sweet and salty flavors into the batter.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Directions\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>Step 1: Make the butterscotch brownie batter<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F.

They should stay fresh for about a week. If they become stale, you can place a piece of bread in the container to help restore their moisture.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Can you make this butterscotch brownie recipe ahead of time?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;re setting aside your Sunday for baking a delicious treat to enjoy throughout the week, this is the ideal recipe. After making the brownies, store them in an airtight container to keep them fresh for up to a week.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Can you freeze this butterscotch brownie recipe?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have leftover butterscotch brownies, store them in an airtight container in the freezer for two to three months.

First, nix the eggs for applesauce and the butter for a vegan version. Look for dairy-free chocolate or other mix-ins to toss into the batter. Then, you can follow the recipe as is and you\u2019ll end up with tasty butterscotch brownies.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>How do I know when these butterscotch brownies are finished baking?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use a toothpick to help you decide whether butterscotch brownies are finished baking. Insert a toothpick into the middle of a brownie and if it comes out with a few crumbs, it\u2019s ready.
