When you have a 10 year old boy asking you for a recipe because he liked it, you KNOW you have a winner, right?! That's just the case with this recipe. Within 2 hours, the entire pan was gone!
I love to read murder mysteries with recipes. Diane Mott Davidson is a good author and my other favorite is Joanne Fluke. This recipe comes from Joanne Fluke's book DEVIL'S FOOD CAKE MURDER. I have already baked two recipes and they're both pretty good. This one is my fave of the two. They are soooooo super easy to stir up and they are loved by the boys of the house! Enjoy!
Butterscotch Bonanza Bars
Preheat oven to 350.
In a medium bowl, melt 1 stick of butter.
Stir in 2 cups light brown sugar until well mixed.
Sprinkle 2 tsp baking POWDER and 1 tsp salt over this and then stir until well mixed.
Add two beaten eggs. Stir well.
Stir in 1 tsp vanilla.
Add flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until you have added 1 1/2 cups.
Stir in 2 cups of (any combination) semi-sweet chocolate chips, butterscotch chips. white chocolate chips, or milk chocolate chips. ( I use 1 cup white and 1 cup SS)
Spread into a greased and floured 9x13 pan and bake for 20-25 minutes.
Cool completely before serving. Cut into 40 bars. (I don't usually get that many...I think I get about 30)
I'm getting caught up with the Hannah books :) I made two batches of these today...one iwth just plain semi-sweet chocolate chips and the other with a cup of Heath toffee bits (chocolate covered) and a cup of semi sweet. A big hit!
