candy cookies desserts

salted butterscotch nut bars

I got this recipe from a little Betty Crocker cookbooklet. It’s a keeper. salty, sweet, sticky, gooey……

one stick of butter, 1 1/2 c flour, 3/4 cup light brown sugar, and 1/4tsp salt mix all that gently until it looks like this


…I used a pastry blender

now, press it into a 9×13″ pan and bake (just like this) at 350 for 15min

take 2 cups of salted nuts, any type will do. (I bet cashews would be heavenly!)

1 cup of butterscotch chips… although I am thinking this recipe will be reinvented with other types of chips ( white chocolate-macadamia?)

over low heat, melt them with 1/2 c corn syrup. * I added vanilla too at this point)

also add 2 tbs butter…


spread the nuts on your baked crust…

spread the melted chips over them…and bake for 5 min. Now here’s the catcher: the recipe said cut while warm, I tried and the topping was too soft. So, I waited until they were cool and they were very hard to cut. (between the nuts and the crust…) so… next time I will try and cut while lukewarm. It is worth the hassle though! Enjoy!


Hot out of the oven…

…worth the trouble of cutting.

mmmm!
