Ingredients
  

Bars:

  • 1 cup salted butter browned
  • 1 cup butterscotch morsels divided
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp maple extract
  • 1 ¼ cups all purpose flour
  • 2 cups old-fashioned oats
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt

Glaze:

  • ¼ cup butterscotch chips
  • 2 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 Tbsp water
  • tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Line a 9x13" pan with foil and spray with cooking spray. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
  • Place 1/2 cup of the butterscotch chips in a large bowl, set aside.
  • Cook the butter in a saucepan or skillet over medium heat until it foams, then turns golden brown. Watch closely so it doesn't burn!
  • Pour the browned butter over the butterscotch chips and stir until they are melted. Whisk in the brown sugar, then the egg, vanilla, and maple.
  • Add the flour, oats, baking soda, salt, and the remaining 1/2 cup of chips. Stir until combined. Press the dough into the prepared pan.
  • Bake bars at 350° for 17-20 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges and set in the middle.
  • Let the bars cool at room temperature for 40 minutes, or chill for 20 minutes, then make the glaze.
  • For glaze: Place the butterscotch chips in a small bowl, set aside.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, water, and salt. Bring to a boil, then pour over the chips. Whisk until smooth. Drizzle over the top of the bars while they are still warm.
  • You can serve the bars warm, or let them cool completely for 1 1/2-2 hours.
