Butterscotch Cookie Bars
Adrienne made these for our Hinton Family Reunion. They were so yummy!
1 cup butterscotch chips
1/4 cup butter
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped nuts, opt.
DIRECTIONS
Place butterscotch chips and butter into a glass bowl. Heat in the microwave for about 3 minutes(much less in my microwave), stirring at 30 second intervals until smooth. Set aside to cool until firm.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F Grease a 9x13(I used a smaller pan- about 9x9) inch pan.
In a large bowl, beat the butterscotch chip mixture with eggs and vanilla until well blended. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt; stir into the batter until evenly mixed. Mix in the brown sugar, chocolate chips,and nuts (if desired) Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, just until the bars begin to pull away from the sides of the pan. Cut into squares while warm.

Holla!! Those sound like they were made for me...you had me at "cookie bars.":)
I can't wait to try them. Thanks for sharing!
Stop I am so trying to lose this baby weight! And now I will be dreaming about those bars till I make and eat the whole pan myself! Oh well better luck next week!
Oh man. Those look good. I'm still wanting to try your chicken salad recipe...
And Happy Belated Birthday on the 16th!!
Yum. I'll have to try these. Perhaps you could share your healthiest recipe next, to balance it out. Why is it that the only recipes I ever want to make are those that are sure to clog my arteries and shorten my lifespan? Oh well, at least I'll die happy!
