These are just Chocolate flip strips my mother has been making since the 60's.. I have the original gold medal cookbook pamphlet the recipe was in... but they are sooooo good!

Indeed they are the very ones from an early 1960's pamphlet, which I cannot find. The original ones used melted butterscotch morsels for the dough and this brown sugar dough was suggested somewhere as a substitute. I've used both and an grateful to whomever posted this version. They've been a holiday favorite in my family ever since I started baking them as a young homemaker.

I also lost this recipe that also had butterscotch chips in it. Wish I could get it back.
