1. 1

   *Toast pecans by placing them in a single layer on an ungreased pan and baking them in a preheated 350F oven for 7 to 9 minutes, or until they smell "toasty" and are beginning to brown.

2. 2

   In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, shortening and sugar, then add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition and scraping down the bowl midway through. Beat in the vanilla, baking powder and salt. Mix in the flour, 1 cup at a time, till you have a cohesive, well-blended dough. Add the nuts and butterscotch chips, mixing till they're well-distributed throughout the dough.
