These bars can be cut into small pieces as they are rich and buttery.

1/3 C firmly packed brown sugar

2 T flour
2 eggs
1 C butterscotch chips

Glaze
1 oz square semi-sweet chocolate, melted

Heat over to 350.  Combine flour, sugar & butter & mix until crumbly.  Add chopped pecans.  Pat into 13" x 9" pan that has been lightly sprayed with vegetable oil. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned.  

For filling, beat cream cheese, brown sugar, and vanilla.  Add flour & eggs.  Pour over baked crust & top with butterscotch chips.  Bake 15-20 minutes or until firm to the touch.
