Blissful Butterscotch Bars

Serves: 24 - 36 bars, approx.

Ingredients 

 1 pkg (12 oz.) butterscotch morsels

 1/4 c butter & 1 tbsp. of butter

 1 1/4 c graham cracker crumbs

 1 1/2 c chopped pecans

 2 pkg (8 oz.) cream cheese

 1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk

 1 med. vanilla bean

 2 eggs

 1 Tbsp Frangelico

 3/4 c toffee chips or heath bar chips if you want a little chocolate too

 2 - 3 Tbsp butterscotch sauce or syrup (such as Smuckers sundae syrup)

Directions 

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees.

 In saucepan (best in double-broiler) or microwave melt 1/2 pkg of butterscotch morsels & margarine. Stir in graham cracker crumbs and 1 cup of pecans.  

2. Press mixture firmly onto the bottom of the greased 9X13 pan. 

(Grease bottom and sides of pan to avoid bars from sticking.)  

3. IN large mixer bowl beat cream cheeses until fluffy & then beat in condensed milk, inside of vanilla bean, Frangelico & eggs.

 Mix well. Then, stir in the remaining butterscotch chips into cream cheese mixture & pour over graham cracker crust. Bake 25 minutes at 350 degrees.  

Then, 5 to 10 minutes after removing from oven, add your toffee chips and 1/2 cup of chopped pecans on top, and drizzle some butterscotch sauce on top as well.  

Cool & then chill before cutting into bars. Refrigerate any remaining bars.
