From Company’s Coming for Christmas

1 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cup quick cooking rolled oats
1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butterscotch chips
1/2 cup slivered almonds
2 tablespoon honey

Beat butter, first amount of honey and vanilla in mixing bowl until smooth.

Stir in rolled oats, flour and salt. Add butterscotch chips. Stir. Spread in greased 9 x 13 pan.

Sprinkle with almonds. Push down to make them stick.

Heat remaining honey slightly until it is runny. Brush or dab over surface. Bake in 350 degree oven for 25 – 30 minutes until golden browned. Cool before cutting into 54 squares.

Notes:
Having just made Peanut Butter Treats, I accidentally started doubling this recipe’s ingredients even though it already inherently makes a 9 x 13 pan full. Oops. So, I had two cake pans of Bees Knees for the bake sale. Didn’t know how they’d go over, but apparently people were asking for more so it all worked out in the end.

One lady loved the name and inquired “Do bees even have knees?” Good question, I thought. What do you think?
