Sweet and Salty Butterscotch Bars

Sweet and Salty Butterscotch Bars

These Sweet and Salty Butterscotch Bars are so addicting. This is my warning to you all now - it's the perfect combo of sweet and salty.

I'm more of a savory person but I occasionally crave something sweet. Especially around that time of the month. So when I made these, I knew they would be a staple for when I'm on my period. And now I've made the recipe for you or your hubby to make you.

I feel like Holiday treats have become a part of me and my brand. I've absolutely LOVED making them and I think they're so fun. It's my favorite part about sharing recipes now. These would be perfect in any holiday treat bag or for a gal's brunch.

Once again, it's an extremely easy recipe. It's only on the stove for a few minutes and then you pop it in the fridge for about an hour. So after that, go get ready, kick your feet up, don't worry about a hot oven and in about an hour enjoy a butterscotch square.

I love no bake recipes. If I don't have to turn on my oven, especially in Summer or just a hot day in San Diego, I am happy. It also comes in handy when you're in a rush or during the holidays. You can pop it in the fridge and come back to it when you can. PLUS, you can make multiple recipes. Well, if you have a lot of fridge space. So I am all for a no bake recipe.
