Steps:
- Line cookie sheet with foil. In 2-quart saucepan, stir all ingredients except boiling water with wooden spoon. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until boiling rapidly. Boil and stir 3 minutes. Place boiling water in measuring cup. Remove candy from heat and continue stirring vigorously 4 to 5 minutes or until thick but still shiny.
- Working quickly, drop praline mixture by tablespoonfuls onto cookie sheet, flattening into patty shape with back of wooden spoon if needed. If mixture stiffens too much to drop from a spoon, quickly stir in hot water, 1/4 teaspoon at a time, until smooth. Cool completely, about 30 minutes. Store in tightly covered container.

SPECIAL BUTTERSCOTCH CHIP COOKIES IN A JAR
This is a cookie mix with an attached tag which gives the directions on how to prepare the mix and bake the cookies. Seasonal fabric or a particular kitchen decorating color scheme used for the cloth topper makes the jar attractive enough to display on a baker's rack until it is ready to be used.

Steps:
- Layer the ingredients in the order given in a one quart wide mouth canning jar. Firmly pack each ingredient in place. It will be a tight fit, but all ingredients will fit in the jar. Use pinking shears to cut an 8 or 9 inch circle from gingham, calico, or a seasonal fabric. Place the fabric over the wide mouth lid and rim and secure with a rubber band. Tie on a raffia or ribbon bow to cover the rubber band. Attach a card to the ribbon or raffia with the following mixing and baking directions:
- Empty jar of cookie mix into a large mixing bowl. Add 1/2 cup of butter or margarine, 1 egg, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla. Use hands to mix the wet and dry ingredients together. When completely blended, roll into large walnut sized balls. Place on unprepared cookie sheets and use the palm of your hand to flatten each cookie ball. Bake at 350 in a preheated oven for 8-10 minutes.

Tips:
- Use room temperature ingredients. This will help the cookies spread and bake evenly.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help incorporate air into the cookies, making them light and tender.
- Chill the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help prevent the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set around the edges, but still soft in the center. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before storing them. This will help prevent them from becoming soggy.
Conclusion:
These almond butterscotch cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are soft and chewy, with a rich and buttery flavor. The almonds and butterscotch chips add a nice crunch and sweetness. These cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
