Butterscotch Pecan Slices image

I love the rich, buttery flavor these crisp cookies get from pecans and brown sugar. Once the dough is in the refrigerator, I can have freshly baked cookies in just minutes. For a gathering or when company drops in, I'm prepared with a tasty treat. -Esther Thys, Belle Plaine, Iowa

These slices are a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll add a little more butter to the crust next time.

I had some trouble getting the butterscotch filling to set. I ended up having to bake the slices for a few minutes longer than the recipe called for.
