Toffee Blondies

Ok, I am going to start the week with something sweet. This one of the few Martha Stewart recipes I have made more than once. I love brown butter almost more than breathing. If you’ve never had it you should know that when you cook butter, it starts to smell nutty and it tastes toffee like. Sold yet? Ok, so you add brown butter to a brownie like this one and add toffee bits and a rainy Saturday turns into a very happy afternoon.

I used salted butter, so I omitted the salt in the recipe, and I am not a bit walnut fan, so I used pecans. I also added chocolate chips – which were completely unnecessary by the way, but it just felt right.

Enjoy!

Toffee Blondies

Yield: 9 bars

Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients:

1-1/4 cups stick butter
2-1/4 cup flour

2 cups brown sugar
3 large eggs
2-1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup of chopped pecans
1 cup of toffee bits

Directions:

I put all the dry ingredients into a mixing bowl. Then I started browning the butter in a pan, when the butter is browned I set it aside and let it cool. Then I added the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, adding the butter last. Mix well. Then add the toffee bits, chocolate chips and pecans.
