Butterscotch Pie in a Glass Pie Pan
It’s time to mix it up this Thanksgiving and try this Butterscotch Pie, believe me, you will not regret it!  This creamy butterscotch filling is spread into a flaky pie crust and drizzled with butterscotch topping then sprinkled with butterscotch chips.  It’s basically a butterscotch lovers dream.
I have been a big fan of butterscotch ever since I was young.  It is still my favorite pudding flavor.  I thought that I had died and gone to heaven when I tried Harry Potter Butterbeer for the first time at Universal Studios in Orlando a few months ago.  Oh, how I want to go back and get another one.  But for now, this pie will do just fine!
