Like these Butterscotch Chocolate Bars. This old family recipe comes from my late cousin Marianne, who lived in a dreamy house on Cape Cod. Each summer, my family would visit the cape for our annual family reunion at my late cousin Grace Louise’s house (also a dreamy dwelling). When I found Marianne’s recipe in our family cookbook years ago, I made it and fell in love with the rich, chocolatey bars that she made when her brothers and their families would visit (or so says the headnotes in the cookbooks).
These are so easy to mix by hand, right in the saucepan that you melt the butter in. And, once the batter is spread in a baking pan, they rise and bake to a gooey, rich wonderfulness. These are bars to share with loved ones, and the kind of thing you might just find yourself making again and again.
And why not? Time is so fleeting. Indulging a little, and soaking in the joy it brings, is so worth it. Click here to continue reading.
