Butterscotch Treats

"I got this recipe from a family member who brought it to every gathering...with good reason...it's so good! I made it once and took it to work. It was gone within 2 hours. I had to start making it a double batch just so everyone could have some. It is so easy, and so quick. It's a great last minute dish to take."

  1. I made these for my peanut butter loving daughter. I used 1 cup of pb chips and 1 cup butterscotch chips. She loved them. Next time I will reduce the cornflakes by about a cup. Personally, I love the butterscotch chips better. These are very good and do not pull your fillings out like other recipes I've tried. 8-)
     
  2. We love these! I've heard them called Tiger Claws before, but I'm not sure where that name came from! <br/><br/>We followed the recipe exactly, but we don't make them as bar treats. We put them on a wax paper-covered cookie sheet in spoonfuls, then put the cookie sheet in the fridge for about an hour. This makes them form into smaller individual treats that aren't as big as bars. It works better with little kid hands!<br/><br/>I had lost the quantities for each ingredient. Thanks for posting this recipe!
     
  3. I was excited to make these as a treat for my daughter and I. I'm sad to say that they did not go over well with either one of us. I followed the recipe precisely and cannot figure out the buzz surrounding this dish. It was fair at best.
     
  4. Tasty and very easy. Had a problem with the mixture crumbling even after being chilled, I could not have cut it into bars, but the kids just ate it in handfuls. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
     
  5. Oh, yum! Absolutely delicious! The only thing I would change is doubling the batch next time, as these were pretty thin and I prefer thicker bars (like rice crispy treats). This will definitely be a favorite!

  1. My grandmother used to make them, but instead of corn flakes, she used Rice Krispies. After she made a batch, she always had to hide it, otherwise it would disappear quickly! :)

My family is usually scared to ask what's for dinner as it probably will be something we have never had before and none of us know if we will like it. I have a family full of picky eaters, but I always make them at least try something before deciding if they like it or not!
