Aunt Marie's Nut Bars

This recipe came out of the St. Edwards Catholic Church cook book called “Feeding the Flock”. That church is in Austin, Minnesota. The Girls and I visited a quilt show at St. Edwards and were treated to this wonderful desert. It was so good it was the sole reason for purchasing the cook book!

1 ½ cp flour ½ cp white corn syrup
½ cp butter 2 Tbsp butter
¾ cp brown sugar 1 Tbsp water
1 tsp salt 1 can mixed nuts
1 (6 oz) pkg. butterscotch chips

Mix together flour, butter, brown sugar and salt. Press into greased 9x13 inch pan. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes. Melt together butterscotch chips, corn syrup, butter and water. Place mixed nuts on baked crust. Pour butterscotch mixture over the top of the nuts. Bake 10 minutes. Cut while still warm.
