I love it when I create recipes and they turn out perfect on the first try, my excitement is like Christmas morning. My new recipe for these Bourbon butterscotch & chocolate chip blondies with pecans is my southern take on a classic blondie bar. I’ve been bored but also restless these days like I’m sure a lot of you, it’s hard to get motivated when you feel there is no need…but today I woke up from a nap, looked in my pantry and put together this recipe for a special client of mine. She always compliments me on my food, my ideas and my style when I help her entertain, she truly is a gift in my life and I want her to know that with these sweet but not too sweet blondies. The touch of bourbon is a nice addition and not overpowering at all, so please don’t leave it out when you make these treats. This pan makes 20 large bars or 40 smaller ones, so next time you need to sell something spectacular at the next church or school bake sale, whip these up and put smiles on faces…isn’t that what baking is for? Smiles upon smiles…
