Browned Butter-Scotch Toffee Blondies

9 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, divided use

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar (light or dark)

1/3 cup granulated sugar

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 large egg

1 cup sweetened flaked coconut, toasted

1/2 cup butterscotch chips

1/2 cup toffee bits

Melted white chocolate with cinnamon, optional

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter an 8x8-inch square baking dish. 

Melt 6 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook butter, stirring frequently, until it starts to foam and brown - about 5 minutes; set aside. 

In a medium sized mixing bowl, sift together flour, baking soda and salt.

In a large mixing bowl, using a mixer on medium speed, beat together 3 additional tablespoons butter, brown sugar and sugar, until creamy, about 1-2 minutes. Beat in vanilla and egg until combined. Beat in browned butter until combined. Reduce mixer speed to low and beat in flour mixture until just combined; stir in coconut, butterscotch chips, and toffee bits, until combined. 

Scrape batter into prepared baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees F for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.

Cool on a wire rack completely, before drizzling melted white chocolate with cinnamon over the top. Allow the white chocolate to set before slicing.

Makes 12 bars
