Are rich nuts difficult for you to turn down? If so, you'll love these rich, loaded nutty bars.

These bars are a hit! Made them for Father's Day cookout and my friend's mom said they were "The best thing she has ever tasted." I used macadamia nuts and baked on a parchment paper lined 15" x 10" x 1" pan. Used a plastic knife to free the edges and when cool, lifted them out under the paper onto a cutting board. Now our neighbor wants the recipe.

These have always been a hit. I've thought about drizzling them with melted chocolate to make them extra special. If they are too hard to cut just warm in the oven for a few minutes.

Very good and tasty! They are easy to make and everyone loved them. I love the contrast of salt and sweet.I omitted the butterscotch chips and instead just used a teaspoon of vanilla for the glaze so I don''t think there was as much glaze as if I had used the butterscotch but it still turned out great. I think I might just add an extra 1/4 cup of corn syrup and 1 extra tablespoon of butter to create a little more glaze next time.Also, I found it worked better to cut the brown sugar and flour together before adding the butter/margarine in order to get it evenly distributed.
