This dessert is on regular repeat in my household. It’s delicious any time of year and it never goes to waste.
Butterscotch is one of my favorite flavors and I feel like it not used very much, which is unfortunate. I love that it is not too sweet and has a hint of salty to it. That is what makes this dessert so good. The buttery and nutty crust compliments the butterscotch pudding so well. It is such a well round dessert with its many textures and sweet and salty combinations.
It is inexpensive and so easy to make which makes it perfect for potlucks, as a birthday cake, for family night, or any occasion.
