Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 170 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams light brown sugar, packed
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 250 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 175 grams chocolate chips
- 175 grams butterscotch chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a 9x13-inch (23x33 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal later.
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, allow it to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the pure vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure a tender texture.
Fold in the chocolate chips and butterscotch chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the bars cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once cooled, use the parchment overhang to lift the bars out of the pan. Slice into 16 squares and serve.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
