# Everything You’ll Need:

01 -
3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
02 -
2 cups light brown sugar
03 -
2 large eggs, room temperature
04 -
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
→ Dry Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt
→ Add-ins
08 -
1/2 cup pecans, finely chopped
09 -
1/2 cup butterscotch chips
# Steps to Cook:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing overhang for easy removal.
02 -
In a large bowl, mix the melted butter and light brown sugar until well combined.
03 -
Add eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, fully incorporating each before adding the next, then stir in the vanilla extract.
04 -
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
05 -
Add half of the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined; then add the remaining dry ingredients and mix until a smooth batter forms.
06 -
Gently fold in the chopped pecans and butterscotch chips, scraping down the bowl to ensure even distribution.
07 -
Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, checking for doneness at 25 minutes. The top should be golden, shiny, and slightly cracked.
08 -
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before lifting out using the parchment overhang and cutting into nine servings.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Avoid overbaking to prevent dryness; store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to several days.
