  • 3/4 tsp almond extract
  • 3 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 cups miniature marshmallows
  • 3/4 cup chopped honey roasted almonds
  • 3/4 cup chopped, dried cranberries

Directions

  1. Get two 20 inch pieces of wax paper.

  2. In a heavy saucepan set over low heat, melt the butterscotch chips and butter with the condensed milk, stirring until blended and smooth. Stir in the almond extract.

  3. In a large bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, marshmallows, almonds and cranberries; stir in the butterscotch mixture. Divide mixture in half. Place each portion on a piece of the prepared wax paper. Let stand 10 mins.

  4. Using the wax paper as an aid, shape each portion into a 12 inch log. Wrap each log tightly; chill for 2 hours or until firm. Remove paper and cut each log into 15 slices. Store covered in refrigerator.
