Cranberry Butterscotch Squares image

Such a pretty square for your Christmas tray. Traditional cranberries in an unbaked square, topped with pretty pink icing, garnished with dried cranberries. This makes a large amount, but go ahead, put the extras on a pretty pink or red plate and give as a gift.

I'm not usually a fan of butterscotch, but I really enjoyed these squares. The cranberry flavor really balances out the sweetness of the butterscotch.

These squares were a bit too crumbly for my taste. I think I'll try using a different recipe next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my squares turned out a little dry. I think I might have overcooked them. Next time, I'll keep a closer eye on them.
