Ingredients

  • 140 g butter melted, plus extra for greasing the baking tin
  • 2 large eggs
  • 350 g brown sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 250 g self-raising flour
  • 100 g milk chocolate chips
  • 100 g pecan nuts chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease an 8-inch square baking dish with melted butter. In a large bowl, beat the eggs until lighter in color and a little bit thicker. Add the butter, sugar, and vanilla. Stir well until everything is incorporated.
  • Add the flour, chocolate chips and some of the pecans, reserving about a small handful for the topping later. Stir in everything just until smooth, but do not overbeat.
  • Spread the mixture on the greased baking tin and use the back of the spoon to level the surface. Sprinkle the reserved pecan nuts on top and bake for 25-30 minutes. The butterscotch should look set and a toothpick inserted at the center should come out with some moist crumbs.
