Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup bourbon
  • 1 cup butterscotch chips (optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.
  2. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until it turns golden brown and emits a nutty aroma. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar and slightly cooled brown butter. Mix until well combined.
  5. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and bourbon.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  7. If desired, fold in the butterscotch chips and chopped pecans.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
  10. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely before cutting into squares.
  11. Serve and enjoy these delectable Bourbon Brown Butter Blondies!
