MOM MOMS BUTTERSCOTCH ICING
My Grandmother(Mom Mom) made this icing and put it on everything from chocolate cake to cookies. I love it and can eat it just by the spoonful, be careful when making it as it can easliy become too stiff. I really don't mind if it does because then I would just put it in a pan and cut it like fudge.
