I first made this receipe when I was in the 8th grade in homeconomics! I used to make it for my mom, dad and sisters when I was growing up! But when I got married and had my own children, I have made this receipe for them over the years, and it has been a favorite in our home!!! I have tried using chocolate morsels instead of butterscotch, and my husband likes the chocolate instead!!!
