I made this candy for my husband who is picky about anything new. HE LOVED IT!!!!!! In fact I am making more this weekend. One patch I am going to add cashews. His favorite nut besides his kids. I added the sugar to the warm candy and it was the perfect finish.

These are delicious. I did not think they would turn out so well! I added extra butter and it made it buttery and yummy!

I have made this so many times now and only issues i had were because of me not paying attention. Burnt it once. Let it stand to long prior to cutting and forgot the vanilla another time. As for the tast when i do pay attention it is not much different to Werthers Original.

To cook the sugar prooperly it need to be about 240 degrees and not the lower temp.

I attempted this recipe 3 times. The first time i put it in a pot that was too large and it burned (my fault!). The second time I put it in a smaller pot. I waited for the candy thermometer to reach 280, and just as it did, it burned.... The third time I FINALLY got it right... but in my opinion it just wasn't worth the effort...

Smelled like it was burning, and when it was cooled off it tasted burnt. I will not use this recipe again.

This is a great recipe from scratch! If it does not turn out correctly, it is an error on the cooks part, not the recipe. We cut it with buttered shears into bite sized pieces and then shake in a bag with sugar. Will keep for a while. Phenomenal unadulterated flavor. Thank you so much for a great recipe!!

I followed the recipe as exactly as I could (I don't have a candy thermometer.), but it never came to the "threads in water" stage. I had to give up because the mixture actually started to burn. The grainy, taffy-like substance I ended up with tastes more like really good caramel than butterscotch. I'll be making it again because it's so good, but still... Not very butterscotchy.
