Sub. for the NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Butterscotch Fla

Em Lenhart from Acme, PA

I don't keep NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Butterscotch Flavored Morsels in the house. But I always have choc. chips and they have to be Toll House. So I sub.ed them, also used July apples. Turned out prety good.
The Best!

Natalie K. from Warsaw, IN

I absolutely love making (and eating) this apple crisp! I fix mine a little differently though - I toss the apple slices in the flour, cinnamon, and brown sugar and pour the remaining on the layered apples; then I melt the butterscotch pieces over the stove and stir in some milk to make a liquid/paste, then I pour that over my layered apples. Anyway you do it, this is one delicious recipe - everyone I've given some to says the same!
Necessity, The Mother of Invention

ellen ward from Hurleyville, NY

This evening I attempted to start the recipe and found no oatmeal in my pantry. Necessity is the mother of intenvtion so I substituted instant oatmeal packets for the oatmeal. I also just used my apple corer peeler and left skins on all my apples adding more fiber to the recipe and saving me alot of time. Can't wait until it comes out of the oven. I'm drooling as it smells SO good in my kitchen.

Amazing Apples

Adena Henning from NORTH BRANCH, MN

I love Apple crisp, so I am always trying different recipes. This one is fabulous! My family also loves it and has been begging me to make it again!
Easy & delicious

VICTORIA M from North Dallas, TX

This recipe was easy to make, and tasted even better the next day. Serve with vanilla ice cream and watch it disappear!
Good Recipe

cherlyn hawke from OKLAHOMA CITY, OK

I tried this recipe and it was great as far as I was concerned. Everyone else thought it could use a little more sugar.
Easy & Yummy

Evonne Robertson from FRASER, MI

The butterscotch and apple crisp are easy to make and are very yummy. My family wants me to make this recipe again soon. Which won't be a problem because it is so easy.
special treat

laura shaw from SELMA, NC

This recipe is very tasty, especially with whip topping.
Oh My Gosh!

Jackie Bogedahl from TORREY, UT

I made this for desert tonight. I didn't have any butterscotch chips but did have the Caramel/Chocolate Swirls. I used those and they were really good. My only complaint was the topping was dry. Maybe it is because of our dry climate but I will use more butter in the topping next time.
Very good!

Loretta Sacher from CELINA, OH

The butterscotch flavor really adds to this dish.

cassandra brandt from swanton, Oh

The kids and I had a blast making it. It goes well with Ice cream.
Butterscotch Apple Crisp

Patricia Davidson from PALMYRA, TN

This recipe is great! I used the entire 3-lb bag of Granny Smith apples and added just a tad more brown sugar. The butterscotch morsels were the perfect addition. The entire family loved it and it was gone in about 5 minutes - our oldest grandson will be 14 in December and he requested that I make it for him on his birthday. I have a feeling I will be making this one a lot.
yummy

Donna Kranyik from BETHEL, CT

I made this with the caramel swirl morsels instead of the butterscotch (which is also excellant!)...yummy! My whole family loved it . I love this recipe.
Very Good!!!!

Cyndi Newton Ogden from TOWANDA, PA

This receipe is really yum-o! I made it up and put into two smaller pans, that way I can give some away. I had some silvered almonds to add for the crushed nuts. Real rich. One receipe that I will keep. My family all love apple things.
Butterscotch Apple Crisp

ANGELINA ROGERS from AKRON, OH

Very good recipe. I had to tripple the amounts, and I used Splenda Brown Sugar. My guests and my husband asked for more, so I know I will be making it again. Great combo of flavors...........
quick dessert

angelina saldana from BAKERSFIELD, CA

I think I would have enjoyed this recipe more if I hadn't overcooked the apples; it really took a lot out of the flavor. But, it was fun and easy to make.

Apple Crisp

Don Born from TUCSON, AZ

This is the best Apple Crisp I have had in a long time the butterscotch chips and nuts really make it. We had it warm with a little milk on it. But ice cream or whip cream would make it even better.
Butterscotch Apple Crisp

Dawn Williams from MANHEIM, PA

This makes for a great dessert. I made it for a moms get together and it was a hit. Everyone liked it because it was something different. It wasn't hard to make, either. I like trying new recipes. It was delicious. I'm glad I tried it.
The Wonderful Taste of Fall

Yummy Yummy Yummy

Angela Grice from GRAND RAPIDS, MI

"crispy,delicious & mouth-watering"

Sudha Hariharan from Markham, ON

My mom-in-law who had just tasted it asked me, "just tell me what secret ingredient did you put that it is so crispy,delicious and mouth-watering all at the same time?" According to me that is the best compliment I have got ever!
Best Butterscotch Apple Crisp

Linda Deslauriers from GRAND JUNCTION, CO

What an easy and delicious recipe! My family told me that it was a "keeper" Two thumbs up
Made my guests say mmmmmmmm

Tricia Tilley from Bay City , MI

This is a great recipe. I made it for a group of friends, and they loved it. It made the house smell great too. I put a small scoop of vanilla ice cream with mine. Thanks for a great recipe.
Mom in Law to be Asked for the Recipe

Debbie Humphreys from OWENSBORO, KY

I was so suprised at how wonderful this was. My family loved it especially with vanilla bean ice cream on top. I sent some to my future Mother In Law, she called and asked for the recipe. I felt so honored that she would ask.
Delicious

Julia Sastre from BRONX, NY

Hello, I'm Julie from New York and I love me some butterscotch, and I love me some sweet apples, put that together and just imagin the sweet warmth of apples with a little crisp with just a hint of butterscotch and "WOW" what a rythm. But to top it off the ingredients and the measurements were all right on time. My pie came out great, the kids loved it. Thanks Very Best for you new ideas. Julie.
Not As Good As I Expected

Becca Waltrip from Murrieta, CA

I was very excited for this recipe, because I love butterscotch. But, when I made it I ended up being dissapointed. It wasn't really all that good...the flavor just wasn't there. (Oh, and it turned out behing much darker than the picture).
So easy and so wonderful!

KRISTIN Ramey from Longmont, CO

I made this for my holiday potluck lunch at work. First of all, my husband was jealous because it made the house smell amazing and it was almost impossible to keep our hands out of it at home! It disappeared so fast at work, and I've already emailed the recipe to my co-workers. It was a big hit and a great way to use the apples from our tree in the backyard! WONDERFUL! I am going to make it again!
Yummy

Lisa Vogan from Ellwood City, PA

This was so sweet! Just perfect with vanilla ice cream or a big glass of milk. It was easy and the kids and I had fun making (and eating) it.
Big Hit!!

Yvonne Garcia from PORTLAND, OR

Tried this recipe last night and was very pleased with the results. It was a big hit.
great

EVA nichols from KIRBYVILLE, TX

i fell in love with these they are great
Butterscotch Apple Crisp

Ranee DeMott from Perrinton, MI

This has a unique flavor that my family liked. However, they are used to more traditional (high sugar content) recipes. They like it much better with about twice the sugar called for. This would be a great recipe for a dieter - a low fat, low sugar dessert that satisfies the sweet cravings without a ton of calories.
Tastes great

elizabeth gilliland from PEMBROKE PINES, FL

Tastes great,but.. not very pretty. I dressed it up with whipped cream.
Great Apple Dessert!

Mary Esso from Mentor, OH

I love this recipe. It is simple, and the apples are complimented by the butterscotch chips-you can use more or less depending on how sweet you want it. A great way to enjoy the flavors of fall!
apple caramel crisp

patricia phillips from CENTRALIA, IL

heidi luna from Prineville, OR

i really liked this recipe ! I love the crisp so i did double that,but it didnt need it it was great big family hit thanks
Outstanding!

Lynda Setzer from PRESCOTT, WI

I will never make a plain apple crisp again. This recipe was outstanding! Have made it three times now and everyone wants the recipe. I highly recommend trying this one, you won't be disappointed!
Butterscotch Apple Crisp

jennifer barr from Cedar, MN

I made this for my family and it didn't last very long. A very tasty apple crisp for fall.
Yummy

Patti Kemp from SCHWENKSVILLE, PA

This was very easy to make and was very tasty. I don't like Butterscotch, so I used the caramel and milk chocolate swirled morsels.
Butterscotch Apple Crisp

DONNA KISER from FORT DEFIANCE, VA

This is a very easy recipe. I only had a cup of butterscotch morsels on hand, but still gave it great flavor. I think the topping needs to have a little more sugar in it, not quite sweet enough for my taste. Overall, very good and I will be making this again.
Perfect everytime

Jill Darin from Geneseo, IL

I have a Nestle cookbook that I have used for at least five years. This recipe is in it. I always make it in the fall when the apples are ripe. It never fails to get rave reviews. I have served it warm and cold, it doesn't matter, it's just good. It doesn't last long at a party or at home.
UMM UMMM GOOD!!!

Cynthia Trowbridge from FARMINGTON HILLS, MI

One of my daughters invited my husband & me & our other daughter & her husband to dinner. I was bringing a strawberry-rhubarb pie & my other daughter said she didn't like that kind of pie. she asked me to also make an apple dessert. I saw this recipe & decided to make it. Everyone loved it even the one daughter who doesn't like apple desserts loved it. I will make it again and it is easy to make.
Delicious!!

ANNE STEELE from MORRISVILLE, NC

I made this for Father's Day for my husband who loves apples and butterscotch. Very easy and very good. This is a definite keeper! The only thing that I would do differently from now on is use less butterscotch chips. It was a bit sweet for us. Other than that it was wonderful.
so great!!

Amy Meyer from LAS VEGAS, NV

this is perfect and I will keep this recipe forever! Truly a fantastic recipe!!
Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Jan Wilkins from BLYTHEVILLE, AR

Made this for supper! Then had enough to share with the neighbors....They laugh at me, but I can't make a dessert for 2! Anyway, I give this one a 5-Star.
BUTTERSCOTCH APPLE CRISP

LYNNE KRIEGER from YACOLT, WA

ABSOULTLY THE BEST. MADE TWICE IN A WEEK-END. EVERYONE RAVES AND WANTED MORE. ADD BLUEBERRIES THE SECOND TIME.
Good change to a tired recipe

LELANI LANDIS from SMITHFIELD, WV

I liked the butterscotch flavor with the apples. My husband liked the originial recipe without the butterscotch. So I alternate between the two when I make apple crisp.
