Butterscotch Brownies

Although most of my recipes come from bloggers -- there is one cookbook that always resides on my shelf.  Good 'ol Betty Crocker.  These "brownies" are amazing -- they taste just like butterscotch, although there is no actual butterscotch in them! {I stand corrected... you informed me that butterscotch is butter and brown sugar.  Amazing}



Butterscotch Brownies - Betty Crocker

1/4 C butter
1 C packed brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
2 T milk*
1 egg
1 C white wheat flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt

Lightly grease a 8x8 inch glass baking dish.

In a large saucepan, heat butter over medium heat.



Then, remove from the burner and add in the brown sugar, vanilla, milk and egg.



Then, mix in the flour, baking powder and salt.



Spread into the baking dish.



Bake at 350 for 25 minutes, or until golden brown.



Cool for 5 minutes in the pan on a wire rack.

Then cut and serve warm.



*If you use all whole wheat flour, you may wish to increase the milk a bit for extra moisture

    I'm not sure if you guys make a whole lot of tacos / mexican food but we were having chicken tacos last night and didn't have any seasoning - I found a recipe and adjusted it according to what we had/liked. Enjoy!!
