3 cups flour
1 1/2 cups firmly packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter
1/2 cup light corn syrup
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon water
1 (6 ounce) package butterscotch chips
1 pound mixed nuts or cocktail peanuts

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In medium bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, salt and the 1 cup butter; blend well. Press into ungreased 15 x 10-inch jellyroll pan. Bake 10 to 12 minutes.

Sprinkle nuts over partially baked crust.

In small saucepan, combine corn syrup, the 2 tablespoons butter, water and butterscotch chips; boil 2 minutes, stirring constantly.

Pour cooked mixture over nuts to within 1 inch from edge of pan (as the mixture spreads while baking). Bake 10 to 12 minutes until golden brown. Cool; cut into bars.

Makes 3 to 4 dozen bars.
