A good blondie recipe is an important asset for any dessert repertoire. Sometimes called butterscotch brownies, these morsels of butter and sugar are easy to master, delicious, and infinitely adaptable. You can make them plain or dress them up with nuts, chocolate chips or dried fruits.
Since butter is the main ingredient here, the key to the perfect blondie is coaxing as much flavor out of it as possible. The nuttiness of the browned butter, emphasized by the nutmeg, adds depth and character to this particular batter.
