Butterscotch Bars with Chocolate and Disappearing Marshmallows
Yield: 16 bars
These bars are rich with a mixture of butterscotch and chocolate, and chewy from marshmallows you’ll never see again after the pan slides into the hot oven.
Ingredients
- 1 c. butterscotch chips
- ½ c. unsalted butter
- 1.5 c. all-purpose flour
- ⅔ c. packed brown sugar
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- ½ tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2.5 c. mini marshmallows
- 2 c. semi sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F. Spray the bottom and sides of a 9'' x 13'' pan with cooking spray and set aside.
- In a large sauce pan over medium low heat, melt the butterscotch chips and butter, stirring constantly. Remove from heat to cool.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add vanilla and eggs to the butterscotch mixture and stir well. Then add the flour mixture and stir to combine. Fold in the marshmallows and chocolate chips, just until combined.
- Spread into prepared pan and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, taking care to not over bake. (I think they're best when just slightly under-baked!) The edges should be browned nicely, and the center not quite set. The bars will firm upon cooling.
