Recipe for National Butterscotch Brownies Day on May 9

Who knew there was a National Butterscotch Brownies Day?! Had I known before now, I would have been making Butterscotch Brownies for years! I want to warn you, though: these brownies DEEE-licious! Since I’m trying to eat healthier these days, I thought you should know that there’s basically nothing healthy about this recipe.

Butterscotch Brownies Recipe –

Ingredients: 

• 1 package of your favorite brownie mix (plus the whatever ingredients it calls for)
• 1 brick cream cheese, softened
• 1 bag butterscotch chips
• 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
• 1 egg

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and grease your 9×13 baking dish.
2. Prepare brownies as directed on the package.
3. Pour the brownie mixture into the baking dish.
4. Whip the cream cheese, Greek yogurt, sugar, vanilla bean paste and egg until smooth.
5. Heat the butterscotch chips in a microwave-safe bowl for 30 seconds at a time until smooth.
6.  Pour the heated butterscotch chips into the cream cheese mixture.
7. Mix until smooth.
8. Slowly spill the butterscotch cream cheese mixture over the brownie batter.
9. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. (If you want a less gooey brownie, bake them for an extra 15 minutes.)
10. Serve and enjoy!

My husband didn’t love these brownies because they were way too gooey for his taste. My kids and I couldn’t get enough, though! I could have finished the whole tray, don’t get me wrong, but I had to say no! So after about half the tray, I sent the rest to be eaten elsewhere.

Happy National Butterscotch Brownies Day!
