Mixed Nut Bars

Salty and sweet....you'd have to be nuts to turn one of these down!

• Ready In: 30 mins
• Serves: 32

Ingredients

• 1 1⁄2 cups flour
• 3⁄4 cup  packed light brown sugar
• 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄2 cup butter, softened
• 2  cups  salted mixed nuts, very coarsely chopped
• 1  cup  butterscotch chips
• 1⁄2 cup light corn syrup
• 2  tablespoons butter or 2  tablespoons margarine

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F
2. In medium bowl, mix flour, brown sugar and salt. Cut in the 1/2 cup butter until evenly mixed. Press evenly in bottom of an ungreased 13" x 9" baking pan. Bake at 350 for 15 minutes; allow to cool slightly.
3. Sprinkle nuts evenly over semi-cooled crust.
4. In 1-quart saucepan, heat all remaining ingredients over low heat, stirring occasionally, just until chips are melted. Drizzle the melted butterscotch mixture evenly over nuts. Bake at 350 for about 5 minutes.
5. For best results, cut into bars while they are still warm.
