Reeni in her own words.
Hi Zesty South Indian Kitchen readers! Reeni here, guest posting from Cinnamon Girl Recipes with my recipe for butterscotch blondie cookies. Blondies are like brownies without chocolate. Instead they have a rich brown sugar flavor reminiscent of butterscotch.
My blondie cookies are exactly what you would expect from a blondie in cookie form. The soft cookies melt-in-your mouth the same way blondies do. Brown sugar dances across your taste buds in every bite. Packed full of butterscotch chips, they add even more of the distinctive brown sugar flavor blondies are loved for.
With crunchy walnuts thrown in for good measure, these are everything you could wish for in a blondie. Or a cookie. And forget about eating just one. It's impossible. They are completely and irrepressibly addicting.
Butterscotch Blondie Cookies
(by Reeni)
1 + ½ cups packed brown sugar (light or dark)
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
2 + ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
2 cups butterscotch chips (12 ounce bag)
1 cup walnuts, chopped
1. Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
2. In a large mixing bowl beat brown sugar, butter, vanilla and egg together on medium speed until well combined. On low speed beat in flour, baking soda and salt just until combined, if too thick use a spoon. Mix in chips and walnuts with a spoon.
3. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets and bake 8-10 minutes, center will be soft and edges light brown. Cool 5 minutes on baking sheet, remove to wire racks until completely cool. Store in airtight container up to 1 week.
Makes about 40 cookies

Hi Swathi- Isn't this nice, that you didn't have to put your blog on hold, and have all these nice friends guest posting for you? Love your new Template on your blog. I mistakenly wiped my previous one out, and had to replace it with a plain one for now. Hope all is well for you and your tiny Prince, and Princess!
Love the Butterscotch Blondie cookies, Reeni! Never had them as a cookies, only as bars. Will have to try it. So crunchy, and packed with all the goodness of butterscotch flavor...yumm:DDD
Reeni says
Thanks Elisabeth! These are chewy on the edges and soft in the middles - like a chocolate chip cookie.
