Butterscotch Brownies – the most delicious and delightful brownies for the butterscotch fans.
Christmas is less than 2 weeks away, my favorite time of year. You know why? Because I love to bake, so now I actually have an excuse to bake all kinds of goodies for everyone.
So do you like butterscotch? I admit I don’t bake with butterscotch much, but boy do I love the smell of butterscotch. And these brownies smelled heavenly as they were baking. The great thing about these brownies is how easy they are to make. You just put a few ingredients in the mixer, mix, bake and voila.
You might want to ask your neighbors to come over and share these brownies with them, they won’t mind. Be neighborly, it’s Christmas time, butterscotch smell in the air, well that just means love is in the air. Watch their faces as they bite into these brownies and smiles form on their faces. Can you think of a better Christmas gift? I can’t!
