This is a great recipe, quick and easy. and very butterscotchy! I use the microwave to melt the butter and brown sugar (in a glass bowl) and I double this recipe for a 13 by 9 pan. My grandsons prefer to omit the nuts (which I love) and instead sprinkle the top with about a cup of chocolate chips before baking. A panful only lasts a day here - so yummy!
