Easy Butterscotch Bars "Blondies" - ONLY 5 INGREDIENTS

The other night our friends were coming over for a little after-work relaxation and I wanted to make something yummy to snack on.  This recipe is great to make in a pinch because it uses ingredients you most always have in your pantry and since it only uses 5 ingredients, its super fast to stir together!  When  first looked at this recipe, I could not believe it had no baking powder - leavening ingredient, but it doesn't and it works great!  These are terrific leftover.  They get more moist and dense the next day.  Definitely a good recipe to take to pot lucks!  I usually sprinkle some powdered sugar over mine once they are cool for a better presentation!

Easy Butterscotch Bars or "Blondies" - 5 INGREDIENTS

1 cup melted butter (I used margarine - that's 2 sticks)
1 3/4 cups brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups AP flour (whole wheat works great)

Stir melted butter and brown sugar together. Add eggs and vanilla, mixing well. Stir in flour and mix until well combined. Pour batter into a sprayed 9×13 inch baking pan. Bake at 350° for 25 minutes.
