I lost my recipe for these, so have been looking at many of the ones posted. Almost all of them, people mention in their reviews, problems with the crust. The key is to drizzle the condensed milk over the crumbs, before adding the other layers, then taking a fork and pressing everything down, starting at one end of the pan and working your way across in rows to the other end of the pan. Great recipe ... so glad you posted. -
I enjoyed these, made as written except used white choc chips in place of butterscotch. Mine never really harded into bars, there didn't seem to be enough crust on the bottom to pick it up and eat it. Next time I would make additional crust. It tastes delicious though, even though I am eating it with a fork. -
We love these bars. I have never made them before using both butterscotch and chocolate chips and they are very good. -
These are yummy and it doesn't get much easier. They are my husbands favorites and we make them all of the time. Our friend calls them "Love Bars". What a great idea for making them festive! Thanks!

<p>I'm a journalism and French major at the University of Georgia who discovered the joy of cooking a couple of years ago. I spend my summer vacations making dinner almost every night for my family, which includes my two younger sisters (11 and 14), and leap at the opportunity to cook every time I go home for a weekend visit...unfortunately, cooking in the dorms is more trouble than it's worth! <br /> <br /><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/chef3.jpg" alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com" /><a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"> <br /> <br /><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/beartag_1_1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting" /> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/adopted_1_1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/pacbanner.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" /> <br /><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/200_PACpic.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" /></a></p>
