Butterscotch Fudge

This recipe came from my very own brain when the girls were little and couldnt eat chocolate.  I didnt think that was fair because so many holiday candies of all the holidays were based around chocolate so I wanted something that would be special for them.  It took a great deal of trial and error and I honestly am still perfecting it all these years later but this is THIS years recipe.

Ingredients:
1 package of butterscotch chips
1 stick butter
half a can of sweetened condensed milk
2 cups powdered sugar
@ 1 cup of nuts of your choice,  I use slivered almonds or macadamia nuts chopped.. but they are optional
Sometimes I use nuts sometimes I don't


In a double boiler melt the chips, butter and sweetened condensed milk until very smooth.

With a wire whisk mix in the 2 cups of sifted powdered sugar.  Fold in the nuts if desired and pour into a greased pan to cool and set up.  Cut into small squares and store in an air tight container for several weeks if needed.
