These rich dessert bars are the perfect mix of creamy peanut butter flavor with the sweet caramel-like taste of butterscotch. Soft, chewy, and topped with chocolate and butterscotch chips — they’re a guaranteed crowd-pleaser!
📝 Ingredients:
1 cup (225 g) unsalted butter, melted
2 cups (400 g) light brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup (250 g) creamy peanut butter
2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup butterscotch chips
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
👩🍳 Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9×13 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and brown sugar until smooth.
- Add eggs and vanilla, mix until fully combined.
- Stir in the peanut butter until creamy.
- Sift in the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix just until combined — do not overmix.
- Fold in half of the butterscotch and chocolate chips.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
- Sprinkle the remaining chips over the top.
- Bake for 28–32 minutes, or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean (a few moist crumbs are okay).
- Cool completely in the pan before slicing into bars.
✨ Tip: For extra flavor, drizzle melted peanut butter or caramel sauce over the cooled bars before serving.
