Scotcheroos

Mon, 27 Oct 2008 by Christy {The Girl Who Ate Everything}

Why did everything taste so good back in college when I was single and a poor college student? My roommate Carrie would make these babies in Provo and I swear I could eat the whole pan by myself without blinking. Not much has changed I guess. These are one of my all time favorite desserts. Chocolate, peanut butter, and butterscotch all in one.

Instructions

  1. In large saucepan, combine sugar and corn syrup. Heat to dissolve sugar and bring to boil; remove from heat. Stir in peanut butter. Add Rice Krispies and mix until well blended. Press into buttered 9X13 inch pan. In small saucepan, melt together chocolate chips and butterscotch chips. Spread combined mixture over top of Rice Krispies mixture. Cool. Cut into 36 bars.

    Mmmm! These are one of my FAVORITE recipes! And they can be whipped up SO quickly!! I dare you to try 1 1/2 cups peanut butter in the bars, and double your butterscotch chips in the frosting. You will L.O.V.E it!

    Oh…and why not toss in a tsp of vanilla extract into the sugar/peanut butter mix :)

    These are my go-to dessert for any and every occasion that I’m asked to bring a dessert to! Except, I call them “Baby Ruth Bars”, and instead of corn syrup, I use honey as a little bit of a healthier alternative. Also makes them chewier! I also love to use chunky peanut butter instead of creamy. SO good!

    I like to use a couple Tablespoons of maple syrup in with the sugar and syrup.

    Have you ever made the version of this that calls for marshmallows instead of sugar and karo syrup? They aren’t so heavy tasting and really easy to make in the microwave. Just wondering… :)
