Butterscotch Pie From The 1920s Recipe

	Chefmeow / All my dishes 2 years ago BUTTERSCOTCH PIE This recipe comes from my mother’s collection. She obtained it from her knitting group in 1952. She said it had been around for years at that point. She is guessing that this is a recipe from the 1920's. Prep:10m Cook:20m Servings:8	Chefmeow
