I love these! I can't recall if I found this recipe in BH&G or LHJ, but I love butterscotch and how simple this recipe is to put together. Thank you so much for posting this!

These are extremely sweet and rich bars, a bit too much so for my taste. I have a few modifications in mind. I agree that they were quite easy to put together.

My husband adored these bars. They are a cinch to make and a delight to eat. Cut carefully as places in the crust seemed to carmelize as it cooked. I tried a small piece with a little chocolate syrup over it....pure heaven and rich as all get out! A certain repeat recipe in our house!
