Instructions
Preparation Steps
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment, leaving an overhang, and lightly grease.
Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
In a large bowl, stir melted butter and brown sugar until smooth and glossy; let stand 2 minutes to cool slightly.
Whisk in eggs and vanilla until fully combined and shiny.
Add dry ingredients and fold just until no streaks of flour remain; do not overmix.
Fold in butterscotch chips and pecans. Batter will be thick.
Spread evenly into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
Bake 22 to 26 minutes, until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Cool completely in the pan on a rack. Use the parchment to lift out, then cut into 24 bars.
Store airtight at room temperature up to 4 days, or freeze up to 2 months.
Notes
For gooier bars, pull them from the oven when the center still looks slightly underdone. Swap pecans for walnuts or leave the nuts out entirely.
