Butterscotch Chocolate Chunk Blondies with Smoked Salt
Yield: 16 servings
This Butterscotch Chocolate Chunk Blondies with Smoked Salt recipe is easy to make and rich with the flavors of butter and brown sugar.
Ingredients
- ½ c. Land O Lakes® Unsalted Butter
- 1 c. lightly packed dark brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- large pinch kosher salt
- 1.25 c. all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp. baking powder
- ¼ tsp. cinnamon
- 4 oz. butterscotch chips divided
- 2 oz. toffee bits divided
- 1 oz. good quality dark chocolate bar chopped into 1/4" to 3/8" chunks
- ½ tsp. large-grain smoked salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- Line an 8" x 8" metal baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl, gently melt the butter in the microwave. Try to not let the butter get too hot. With a rubber spatula, stir in the brown sugar until blended. Add the egg, vanilla extract, and kosher salt, stirring until completely incorporated. Sprinkle the flour over the top, followed by the baking powder and cinnamon. Then stir just until combined. Do not over mix. If the batter is noticeably warm from the melted butter, let it sit for a bit to cool down to room temperature.
- Then gently fold in 3 ounces of the butterscotch chips and 1 ounce of the toffee bits, taking care to not over mix the batter.
- Spread batter evenly in prepared pan, and then sprinkle with the chocolate chunks, followed by the remaining 1 ounce of butterscotch chips and 1 ounce of toffee bits.
- Finish by sprinkling the smoked salt over it all.
- Bake for 24 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out just barely clean. Let blondies cool completely before cutting.
