Butterscotch Brownie Day is observed annually on May 9. Butterscotch brownies, also known as “blondies,” are delicious baked goodies that date back to the 19th century. Recipes for these soft, chewy bars most likely evolved from medieval gingerbread cake recipes.
The first non-chocolate brownie-like recipes were soft cakes that were made by the Ancient Romans, Greeks and Egyptians.
To make butterscotch brownies, you need flour, baking powder, salt, butter, brown sugar, vanilla extract, eggs, and butterscotch. Popular add-in ingredients include walnuts, pecans, butterscotch pieces, chocolate chips, Nutella, banana, or cranberries. You can also choose to add a topping like chocolate Irish cream frosting or drizzled caramel.
Brownies without the chocolate have been around for a long time. Recipes in cookbooks from the 1740s - 1940s had a variety of recipes for blonde brownies in them. Many of these recipes included using brown sugar and butter, the key ingredients in butterscotch.
