Yum, few things beat a gooey, chewy, bursting with butterscotch brownie. I've made this one on a couple of occasions and it's sort of a cross between a bar and a brownie and it's got a nice butterscotchy taste. These can be put in a sealer container and are a favorite after-school snack in Amish homes. Very easy recipe so it this one a go!
BUTTERSCOTCH BROWNIES
Butterscotch Brownies
Ingredients
- 1 /4 cup butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 /2 teaspoon salt
- 1 /2 cup nuts
Instructions
- Melt butter in a pan over medium heat. Add brown sugar and stir for 1-2 minutes, until it has a thick, peanut butter-like consistency.
- Let cool, then stir in beaten egg and vanilla, followed by flour, salt, and baking powder. Once combined, stir in nuts. Spread the batter into a greased 9x13 pan and bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes, or until edges begin to brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cut into squares while warm and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Place leftovers in air-tight container.

That amount of batter seems as though it would be quite thinly spread in a 9x13 pan. I have not yet tried it but it seems as though 8x8 might be more suitable.
As far as the passwords, I guess I am old school. I just keep a notebook. I live alone so no one really sees it but me, but I am thinking if it was a bigger audience one would need a hiding spot.

SIGH a notebook seems so quaint, I like that....and, I agree, 8 X 8 would give you a thicker brownie with the amount of batter, I'd go with that.
