1/2 c. butter
1 c. butterscotch bits
2/3 c. brown sugar
1 egg
1 1/3 c. flour
3/4 tsp. baking soda
3/4 tsp. vanilla
1/3 c. nuts, chopped fine

Melt butter and butterscotch bits over low heat. Remove from heat. Beat into it the brown sugar and egg with a wooden spoon. Stir in flour, soda, vanilla, and nuts. Chill for a couple of hours, then make into 2 rolls. Chill again.

Slice paper thin and place on foil-lined cookie sheet, not too close or they will run into each other. Bake only 5 minutes at 350 degrees or until golden brown. Remove to brown paper to cool.
