Butterscotch Cashew Bars

These chewy bars have just the right mixture of sweet and salty with the butterscotch chips and the cashews. The dough will have a consistency a little thicker than brownie batter and may require a little extra flour. Make sure you let the bars cool since the room temperature bars tasted much better than the warmer ones.
