Grandma's Butterscotch Pie image

Butterscotch is one of those old-fashioned pies that will transport you back to grandma's kitchen. After one bite of this pie, you might find yourself eating it straight from the pie plate. The pie is rich, sweet, and silky. It has a texture similar to a thick custard. Just heavenly.
