How to Make Butterscotch Dreams

  1. Combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, and 1/4 cup milk in a large saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil for exactly 1 minute, continuing to stir.
  3. Remove from heat and immediately stir in 1 cup butterscotch chips (Skor chips or your preferred brand).
  4. Stir until the chips are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
  5. Stir in 1/2 cup rolled oats and 1/4 cup shredded coconut.
  6. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly combined.
  7. Let the mixture cool for 10-15 minutes, or until it's cool enough to handle without burning your fingers.
  8. Lightly grease your hands with butter or cooking spray. Scoop rounded tablespoons of the mixture and gently roll into balls.
  9. Place the finished Butterscotch Dream balls on waxed paper to set.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until the confections are firm.
  11. Serve your Butterscotch Dreams in truffle cups or enjoy them straight from the waxed paper!
