This recipe yields about 1/2 cup of baking chips and contains NO net carbs
I have been looking for a replacement for the Lily’s butterscotch baking chips, now that they’re discontinued. I use the chips in a few recipes where I melt it down and mix with peanuts and peanut butter. Since I don’t actually need the butterscotch chips, I just need the melted mix, can I use this recipe to make the mix, and just use in the recipes I have as it is already melted?
Thank you so much for posting this!
Do you use salted or unsalted butter?
I can’t wait to make these. I will state that cookies and crackers are my weakness. For the cookie recipe, could I portion them out into individual sizes, freeze, then bake as needed? I could envision these sitting in the cookie jar calling my name.
Thank you so much!
