- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup butterscotch morsels
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups packed brown sugar
Prepare Your Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving extra paper on the sides for easy removal.
Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and brown sugar until smooth and glossy for a chewy texture.
Add Eggs and Vanilla: Mix in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, ensuring everything is well combined.
Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Gently fold in the flour, baking powder, and salt with a spatula, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Add Butterscotch Chips: Fold the butterscotch morsels into the batter, ensuring even distribution.
Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 35-40 minutes, checking with a toothpick—there should be a few soft crumbs on it.
Cool Completely: Let the brownies cool in the pan, then lift them out using the parchment paper. Slice into squares and enjoy!
