Healthy, Low-Carb, Butterscotch mug cake! (7-ingredients)

I absolutely LOVE butterscotch if you can’t tell from all my recent butterscotch recipes. It just kinda falls to the backburner because it’s full of sugar, and…well…chocolate. Anyways, last week I attempted to come up with a healthy, butterscotch, mug cake. FAIL!!!

For my last birthday, my aunt gave me some of Lily’s new butterscotch chips. So that solved the sugar problem. I also came out with another recipe using these recently. They’re kinda like blondies, but butterscotch. Healthy, Butterscotch Bars! (Sugar-Free) If you wanna make them, there’s the recipe linked for ya!

Only 7-ingredients, and you probably already have most of them in your kitchen!! So after I made the mug cake the first time, I made a few tweaks and came up with a wayyyy better recipe!!

I even accidentally made it keto, thm, AND low-carb. Seriously, I was just trying to make it healthy and it somehow ended up that way!

Healthy, Butterscotch Bars! (Sugar-Free)

I don’t know about you guys, but I’ve always LoVeD Butterscotch!! For my birthday, my aunt got me some of Lily’s new Butterscotch chips. Yesterday, I asked my mom what new recipe I should make for you guys, and mentioned my butterscotch chips. She looked up some recipes with butterscotch in them, and found a cookie recipe. It was full of white flour, and sugar, so obviously I had to modify it.

Now, the original recipe was for cookies, and said to put the dough in the fridge for 30 minutes. I don’t know about you guys, but ain’t nobody got time for that!! That’s why I made them into bars. Maybe I’m a tad lazy too. Hehe!

Do you guys like those videos where they add all the ingredients in a bowl, and show it from the top like this?? I know it’s not a video, but I’m not that high tech so this will have to do for now.

It may not look like it, but they’re super gooey before they’re baked. I baked them a little long because I was guessing, and this recipe was supposed to be cookies. That’s why I shortened the amount of bake time for you guys.

You guys already know…Like, Share, Pin, Subscribadibe, Comment, and leave recipe tips or suggestions!! I love hearing from you guys, and always welcome feedback. Especially if you’ve tried, and love a recipe! Find me on Facebook and Pinterest (Amy Croasmun) or Instagram (ac_unit18)
