Butterscotch Brownies

This is a wonderful recipe that can be changed according to your mood.

Substitute pecans for the walnuts or add chocolate chips in place of the white chips.  For extra crunch forget the chocolate and add extra chopped nuts.

The result is chewy and crunchy with a hint of caramel.  Delicious.
