For all you Butterscotch lover's, Here's a great-tasting recipe to satisfy your sweet tooth....these are soooooo yummy!
Ingredients:
1 cup butter flavor shortening
1 cup sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups flour
1 cup old fashioned oats
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 (10 ounce) package butterscotch chips
1 cup chopped pecans
1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tablespoon flour
Directions:
1. Set oven to 375 degrees.
2. set oven rack to second-lowest position.
3. Grease a 13x9-in baking pan.
4. In a mixing bowl, cream the shortening and sugars.
5. Add eggs, beat well; beat in vanilla.
6. Combine flour, oats and baking soda; gradually add to creamed mixture.
7. Stir in chips and pecans; reserve 2 cups for the top of bars.
8. Spread remaining dough into greased baking pan.
9. In a mixing bowl, combine filling ingredients; spread evenly over crust.
10. Crumble remaining dough over filling.
11. Bake for 40-42 mins, or until golden brown.
12. Cool, and cut into bars.
13. Note: although I have never tryed it, if you prefer more filling, I presume that you could double the filling ingredients, just bake a little longer.
