Ingredients
  

1 cup unsalted butter (softened)

1 cup brown sugar (packed)

1/2 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup butterscotch chips

1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

    Mix Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Use an electric mixer to cream the ingredients together until the mixture is light and fluffy.

      Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then add the vanilla extract and blend until fully incorporated.

        Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter-sugar mixture, mixing until just combined.

          Fold in Chips and Nuts: Gently fold the butterscotch chips and chopped nuts (if using) into the batter until evenly distributed.

            Bake the Blondies: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out with a few moist crumbs, but not wet batter.

              Cool and Cut: Once baked, remove from the oven and allow the blondies to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes. Lift them out using the parchment paper, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into squares.

                Serve and Enjoy: Serve these deliciously chewy butterscotch blondies plain or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side for an extra indulgent treat!
