Butterscotch Brownies with Caramel Icing

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter an 8x8-inch pan.

In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to mix butter sugar, egg and vanilla. Add flour and baking powder, and stir just until incorporated. Spread into prepared pan. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool in pan.

While brownies are baking, prepare icing. In a small saucepan, melt butter and cook until brown, stirring constantly. Add brown sugar and continue cooking, stirring until sugar is completely melted. Pour in half and half and stir. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

When cooled, add powdered sugar (use your judgment on how much- according to thickness), vanilla and salt. Beat until thick enough to spread.

Spread brownies with icing, and cut into squares. Enjoy!
