Butterscotch Nut Bars

1 1/2 c. flour
1 tsp. salt
1/2 c. sugar
3/4 c. butter
2T. butter
6 oz. butterscotch chips (1/2 pkg.)
1/2 c. white corn syrup
12 oz. mixed nuts or cashews

Mix flour, salt, and sugar. Cut in 3/4 c. butter until it resembles a crumb-like mixture. Press into an ungreased 9 X 13 pan well and bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool.

Spread nuts over cooled crust. In saucepan on stove, melt 2 T. butter, corn syrup and butterscotch chips. Pour evenly over nuts and cool. Cut into bars. These freeze very well; therefore, you can make them ahead of time. They thaw pretty quickly.

Enjoy!
