Late-Night Blondies

Adam and I had a late-night craving for some blondies, so we fulfilled that craving and made some. We spiced up the Betty Crocker's Cookbook Butterscotch Brownies with walnuts, butterscotch chips, and chocolate chips. Absolutely scrumptious!

Butterscotch Brownies (Betty Crocker's Cookbook, Bridal Edition)

1/4 cup butter or stick margarine
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
2 Tbs. milk
1 large egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup chopped nuts, if desired (we used walnuts)
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt

Our indulgent additions:
1/2 cup butterscotch chips
1/2 cup chocolate chips

1. Heat oven to 350. Grease bottom and sides of square pan, 8 x 8 x 2 inches, with shortening.
2. Melt butter in 1 1/2-quart saucepan over low heat; remove from heat. Stir in brown sugar, vanilla, milk, and egg. Stir in remaining ingredients. Spread in pan.
3. Bake about 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 5 minutes in pan on wire rack. For brownies, cut into 4 rows by 4 rows while warm.

Kris-any recommendations for a really delicious lentil recipe? I have been craving lentils lately, but I'd love to do something a little more interesting than just cooking and using as a side. Suggestions?
