Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 c Butter
1/2 c Honey
1/2 c Brown sugar -- packed
1 1/2 c Walnuts -- chopped and toasted
1 c Butterscotch pieces (6 oz)
2 tb Butter
Combine 1 cup butter, honey, and bown sugar in a saucepan: bring to a
boil, stirring and then add 3/4 cup of the chopped nuts; Continue
cooking; stirring frequently, to 300 F on a candy thermometer. This
will be the hard-crack stage. Pour candy into a well buttered 8" cake
pan. Cool. Melt butterscotch pieces with remaining butter over hot,
not boiling water and while candy is still warm, spread half of the
butterscotch mixture and sprinkle with remaining nuts.
When candy is cold, turn out of cake pan and spread bottom of candy
with the remaining butterscotch mixture and sprinkle with remaining
nuts. When ready to eat, break into small irregular pieces.

Notes: At our house we often change the type of nuts as well as use
chocolate chips. Bottom can be left bare as well.
