Butterscotch Confetti

These squares are like eating little pillows of buttery perfection. So quick to throw together and they freeze well also (if they make it that far).

Butterscotch Confetti

1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
1 cup Butterscotch chips
2 cups (approx) of white or coloured mini marshmallows

Melt butter and peanut butter over low heat. Stir in chips until melted. Cool a bit and add marshmallows. Pack down in 8x8 pan lined with wax paper. Chill and cut.

Doesn't get any easier then that. Could add some peanuts for a twist.

This recipe has been in my arsenal for years. I think it may be one of the first things I learned to (not) bake, way back when. Sometimes, we call them cottage squares as they are a very quick and easy square to take along in the summertime. You can speed things up with canned frosting.
Still yum!
