Also, I have a pesterchum: apocalpyseDetective

Pester me if you like, I suppose.

I've decided that in lieu of personal information about me, I'd instead give you my recipe for butterscotch brownies.

1/2 stick unsalted butter
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon double-acting baking powder
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup oatmeal

Set oven rack to upper middle level. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and lightly grease a 9- by 9-inch baking pan. Melt together in a small saucepan the butter and brown sugar. Set aside to cool slightly and while it cools, sift together into a separate bowl the flour and baking powder.

Beat egg and vanilla into butter mixture. Stir flour mixture into butter mixture. Fold in oatmeal. Pour into prepared pan. Bake brownies on upper middle rack at 350 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes. Cool on a wire rack, cut, and serve. Makes 1 dozen bars.
