Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Milk
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 0.5 cups Butterscotch chips
- 1.25 cups Boiling water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, but do not overmix.
Spread the batter evenly into the greased baking dish using a spatula.
Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the batter, followed by the butterscotch chips.
Carefully pour the boiling water over the entire surface of the dish. Do not stir.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is set and golden brown. The cake will develop a pudding-like layer underneath.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm, optionally topped with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
