These old-school butterscotch chewies get their deep caramel flavor from a simple trick: boiling brown sugar with melted butter before mixing it into the batter.
The result is a chewy, dense bar with crackly edges and a toffee-like center that’s somewhere between a blondie and a praline.
They’ve earned a near-perfect 4.8-star rating for a reason.
Pro Tips
- Let the boiled sugar mixture cool before adding the eggs or you’ll end up with scrambled egg bits in your batter
- Don’t overbake; they should look slightly underdone in the center when you pull them out, then they’ll set as they cool
- Swap butter for the margarine if you want a richer, more genuine butterscotch flavor
- Add chopped pecans or walnuts to the batter for extra crunch if you like
