Twenty-five Hourglass Blocks

Today is National Blonde Brownie Day, but I was thinking of making these the day after tomorrow, when my kids (and theirs) are here for dinner. I might pair them with Death-by-Chocolate Mousse Ice Cream.

Butterscotch Blondies

1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons butter
2 1/2 cups brown sugar
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs, lightly beaten


Heat oven to 350F. In a small saucepan, heat butter over medium heat 6 minutes, stirring, until very lightly browned. Pour into small bowl; cool at least 10 minutes. In a large bowl, mix brown sugar, flour, baking powder and salt. Add eggs to cooled browned butter; stir with whisk. Pour butter mixture over flour mixture; stir just until moistened. Spoon batter into a buttered 9x13" pan and bake 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely before cutting into bars. Makes 24 large blondies.
