Too early…
Thanks for all the recipes swtness! I would avoid the margarine and stick with butter. Butter has been used for centuries, while margarine is a not-so-healthy modern creation. Surely butter is better processed by our digestive systems. I say butter all the way! They don’t call it butterscotch for nothin’!
