Butterscotch bars are a favorite of Grandpa Bernie. I made these to see what the big deal was about them, because while I do enjoy the occasional butterscotch morsel or bite, I typically won’t go looking for it. However, I definitely understood the amazingness of these decadent bars (and it shows, because I made them two days in a row…). Also known as a 7 layer bar, Grandma Judy’s Butterscotch Bar was a great way to indulge after a long day at work, or in my case, in the lab. These bars are so rich and so tasty- after just one measly little square, you’re completely satisfied. 
The graham cracker crust bottom holds together a gooey mix of peanut butter, butterscotch morsels, coconut, walnuts (or in my second batch, pecans) and other flavorful goodness (including -ehm- marshmallows). 
No need to resist the urge to have more, because the urge will have definitely been fulfilled. Butterscotch bars will, of course, be added to the Family Reunion Dessert Menu.
The final product. Obviously picstitched and instagrammed to perfection… 😉
