Butterscotch Blondie Tips
- For THICKER blondies, make these bars in an 8×8 baking pan.
- For THINNER blondies, go for a 9×9 baking pan.
I like the thicker, larger blondies, where I get 9 servings to my 8×8 dish vs a 9×9 baking dish. You could do 12 or 16 easily for party trays or gift boxes or just because you want cute mini blondies. ????

Don’t over bake your blondies, so you get the nice soft and chewy texture. It’s always better to under bake, as blondies continue baking after they’ve been removed from the oven, while they’re cooling in the pan.
Storing Butterscotch Blondies
- Room Temperature: Store blondies in an airtight container at room temperature once they’re cool for up to a week.
Freezing Butterscotch Blondies
- Freezing: Wrap each blondie in plastic wrap before you put it in an airtight container or freezer bag. It will stay frozen for up to three months.
More Variations & Ways to Serve
- To take these blondies to the next level, while they are still warm, or microwaved, top them a drizzle or 4 of butterscotch sauce and a huge scoop of vanilla ice cream!
- Add your favorite mix-ins like white chocolate chips, dried cranberries, toffee bits, walnuts, peanut butter chips, chocolate chips, or salted caramel chips!
The balance of richness with the butter and brown sugar is very complimentary in these worthy butterscotch bars. Just sweet and rich enough, which when it comes to butterscotch and blondies together, (because more than often) many times they can turn out overly sweet and too rich tasting.
Do you feel me? Well you can trust me. These are totally drool-worthy and dreamy tasting, baked to perfection! Share on Pinterest, Instagram and Facebook!

Hi Crystal! I think you have it covered well for shipping. They should ship well for sure and it’s best to make them the same day you make want to send them out, completely cooled before packaging. Another option is to freeze them and send them out as well if you don’t want to make them the same day you send them out, of course. Someone is going to be very happy to get those blondies! Happy Holidays!
Hi Kim, will these ship well? I am thinking wrap the uncut 8 x 8 block in plastic wrap and then foil, then zip lock bag, etc, to mail in a package. Place in a ton of tupperware. It seems it would guard against drying out, to ship it uncut. What do you think?
That sounds so delicious with the vanilla bean ice cream! Thank you so much Alyssa!!
made these last night and I think I found my new dessert, especially with vanilla bean icecream ????????????
Thank you so much Christie! xo
They look so good Kim! I love the butterscotch flavour. These would be gone in seconds at my house!
I love that Valentina! Yes save some for the blondies! LOL! Hope you enjoy!
It’s not safe to have a bag of butterscotch chips anywhere near me. 😉 Hopefully they’ll make it into the blondies before I eat them all. These look delicious! 🙂 ~Valentina
About 10 days ago I made my first batch of butterscotch blondies and now, reading your ingredients, I have realized why my version went wrong. Thank you for this one Kim !
Oooh Kim butterscotch blondies always bring back memories for me. It was a favorite treat of mine that my Mama would make! My friends and I would devour an entire pan after school (those were the days haha). These look wonderful!!
Kim,
You have such a fabulous collection of recipes, I learn so many new recipes like today’s butterscotch blondies is something that I have never come across before. Great recipe to put my hands on Kim, thanks!
Thank you so much Laura! xo
Thank you so much Ben! xo
They are definitely a dream Catherine! Thank you so much for wanting to devour them all. 🙂
Wow, these butterscotch blondies are a dream! I seriously want to devour them all!
In my book, blondies and butterscotch make one of the most beautiful and perfect pairings among baker’s confections. I am a huge supporter of trying new (and often strange lol) flavour combinations in my cooking, but I am not sure if I even want (or can) to do so with blondies because butterscotch ones are just hard (or impossible) to beat anyway! Your version looks splendid!
Thank you Suzan! They are even more amazing the next day I think!
I have never come across butterscotch blondies… this combination looks delicious! What a great fall treat 🙂
Kim – there’s nothing like. a good blondie! And butterscotch? Yes, Please! I love this simple recipe and this flavor reminds me of my childhood. Thanks for the recipe!
Yup!! I agree! These look AWESOME! I just want to sink my teeth into one!! Pinning 🙂
