Butterscotch Banana Blondies
I love butterscotch morsels and I have a ton of recipes that use them. Butterscotch Banana Blondies use both butterscotch morsels and ripe bananas. They are absolutely dreamy. I mean it. They have a rich Browned Butter Icing to die for. This cookie has everything going for it. Seriously.

I needed to stock my freezer with goodies in February. John likes to give them out to friends whenever he’s out. I had a ton of overripe bananas on hand. I decided to make up a batch of these blondies, plus a chocolate version. Both turned out incredibly good. We got tremendous feedback from those he gave these out to. They all loved ’em.
I can’t recommend Butterscotch Banana Blondies highly enough. They’re great for almost any occasion. Each batch makes 48 luscious blondies. So they’re terrific for tailgating parties, potlucks, family reunions or even during the fall for holiday parties when you need a lot.
If you want a “knock your socks off” dessert, Butterscotch Banana Blondies will do it. You’ll be drooling over every mouthful.
Butterscotch Banana Blondies are irresistible.
If you enjoy butterscotch chips, you’ll love these luscious cookies.
The nice thing about this recipe is it makes a lot. That makes it terrific for potlucks and family reunions.
The butterscotch and caramel flavors of these bars are so scrumptious.
Here’s what I did.
I used these ingredients for the blondie.
Place softened butter in a mixing bowl. Add brown sugar, eggs, vanilla and salt.
Cream with an electric mixer until smooth.
Add UNBLEACHED all-purpose flour. (Bleached flour toughens baked goods). Add mashed bananas and butterscotch morsels.
Stir with a wooden spoon to combine.
Spread mixture into a greased 12×17″ cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
I used these ingredients for the Browned Butter Icing.
Make icing about 5 minutes before the blondies are due to come out of the oven. Place butter in a small skillet over low to medium heat. Add brown sugar.
Add half-and-half.
Stir until melted.
Remove from heat and add powdered sugar.
Whisk ingredients until smooth.
Pour Browned Butter Icing immediately over top of hot blondies after they come out of the oven.
Butterscotch Banana Blondies are terrific for tailgating parties.
These are sure to cure any sweet tooth craving.
These blondies are so delicious, it’s hard to stop after just one.
Here’s the recipe.
