These soft and tasty bars are chock-full of yummy flavors a nice twist on the classic chocolate chip bar. Since I believe that practically everything is enhanced with chocolate I like to sprinkle the top of the batter with additional chocolate chips before baking.

Slowly stir in pecans and butterscotch chips until combined. Place in a 9x13-inch (20x30-cm) baking pan and sprinkle with chocolate chips if desired.
