Light and creamy, this butterscotch dessert never lasts long when I serve it. The fluffy cream cheese layer topped with cool butterscotch pudding is a lip-smacking combination. -Becky Harrison, Albion, Illinois

I'm allergic to nuts, so I made this dessert without the pecans. It was still very good, but I think the pecans would have added a nice crunch.

This is a very rich dessert. I would recommend serving it with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.

I'm not a big fan of butterscotch, but I really enjoyed this dessert. The butterscotch sauce is not too sweet and the pecans add a nice crunch.

I didn't have any pecans on hand, so I used walnuts instead. It was still very good, but I think the pecans would have been better.

I used dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips and it was delicious! The dark chocolate added a richer flavor to the dessert.

This is a great dessert to make ahead of time. I made it the day before and it was even better the next day.
