Pearl's Butterscotch

(A butterscotch is deliciously buttery and more flavorful than a caramel and very extravagant to have it in tawny yellow color ( for I prefer it not very brown) when baked.

Ingredients:

½ cup butter

½ cup margarine

1 cup refined sugar

2 cups brown sugar

4 Eggs

¼ cup glucose

1 ¼ cups condensed milk

2 teaspoons vanilla

2 Tablespoons rhum

3 ½ cups APF + 2 teaspoon baking powder

½ cup peanuts

Procedure:

1. Melt margarine and butter in casserole.

2. Add refined sugar and brown sugar then transfer in a different bowl.

3. Thoroughly mix flour and baking powder.

4. Alternately add flour and egg to the butter sugar mixture.

5. Add glucose, condensed milk, vanilla and rhum.

6. Add only half of the prepared peanuts.

7. Pour in 8 x 12" rectangular pan.

8. Top mixture with remaining peanuts.

9. Bake in 300 degrees F oven temperature for 1 hour until done.

10. Slice into small sizes and wrap in colored plastic cellophanes.

Anyway, butterscotch has nothing to do with Scotland...
"To scotch" means to cut or score something; when butterscotch candy was poured out to cool, it was "scotched" to make it easier to break into pieces later.

Nice day!
