Butterscotch Blondies

Chewy homemade blondies with butterscotch chips. These Butterscotch Blondies are the BEST, especially served with ice cream and an easy homemade butterscotch sauce.

If I’m having a sweet tooth on the weekend I usually turn to some sort of brownies/bars or cookies. They’re the fastest to make and always super tempting. Some of my favorite easy cookie bar recipes include:

• Best Ever Peanut Butter Bars
• Smore Cookie Bars
• Oreo Magic Bars
• Triple Chip Blondies
• Toffee Chocolate Chip Bars

I can’t say enough great things about these butterscotch blondies. They are soft, thick and chewy with the perfect butterscotch sweetness. They taste great as they are, or you can add a scoop of vanilla ice cream with an easy homemade butterscotch sauce. SOO GOOD!
