October has flown by and it's time for another Bakin' Friends post! This month I received a yummilicious package from Dawn Perkowski, my October Bakin' Friend. The secret ingredient for October was pumpkin and I couldn't wait to see what she would be sending me. I was actually home when her package arrived and I doubt my mail carrier has seen a happier person answer their door when receiving something in the mail!
I immediately opened the package and came upon this adorable box
PUMPKIN BUTTERSCOTCH BLONDIES!!!
But I must confess, when I took the pictures of the cute red and white polka dot box, I had already eaten a few of the bars :) They are DELISH!! Especially with a nice cup of hot tea.
Dawn carefully wrapped each bar individually and this time, I actually summoned my elusive self control and only ate one bar at each tea break. I just won't say how many tea breaks I take during the day :) She used vanilla chips in my bars but assured me they are just as good with butterscotch. She included a very sweet note and a recipe card so I can share the recipe with my friends and family.
They are so moist and pumpkin-y, perfect for the fall season.
I could totally see these on a Thanksgiving buffet or as a hostess gift if you are lucky enough to be a guest at someone's house on turkey day.
Dawn said she got the recipe from The Baker Chick. Here's a link to the recipe: http://www.the-baker-chick.com/2012/10/pumpkin-butterscotch-blondies.html
I highly recommend these bars for any occasion. They will definitely satisfy any pumpkin cravings you may have. In fact, make a batch and keep them in your freezer. Then you'll never have to go without!
Dawn, thank you so much for these delicious bars!
