Peanut Butter Pretzel Butterscotch Blondies
- Cooking spray
- 1 3/4 cups packed light brown sugar
- 3/4 cup 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, melted
- 3/4 cup all-natural chunky peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 large eggs (room temperature)
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 1/2 cups mini pretzels (divided)
- 1 cup butterscotch chips (divided)
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 13″x9″ metal baking pan with cooking spray. Line it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on two sides, and grease the parchment too.
- In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the brown sugar, melted butter, peanut butter, baking powder, vanilla, and salt until combined. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Fold in the flour until just combined, then gently mix in 2 cups of pretzels (lightly crushed) and 2/3 cup of butterscotch chips.
- Spread the batter into the prepared pan, then press the remaining 1/2 cup of pretzels on top. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/3 cup of butterscotch chips.
- Bake for 23 to 27 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let them cool completely before using the parchment overhang to lift them out of the pan and cutting them into squares. Enjoy your delicious peanut butter blondies!
