butterscotch brownies

but make it gluten, dairy and nut free

these are basically blondies but cut into small bite-size pieces covered in powdered sugar! this is a family recipe and a new favorite. we ended up having to make two batches last year at christmas because they were SO good.

as far as what you’ll need to make this, a hand mixer or a stand mixer with a paddle hook will be great.

ingredients

1/2 cup margarine — i used Earth Balance *

2 eggs

2 cups brown sugar

1 1/8 cups of cassava flour — i used Otto’s but any brand should work**

3/8 cups of brown rice flour**

1/4 tsp salt

1 tsp vanilla

*for dairy lovers, use real butter

** for gluten lovers, use 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour total. or for those who have your own blend of gluten-free flours
