Scotcheroos
Scotcheroos are a chewy no-bake peanut butter rice Krispies dessert topped with chocolate and butterscotch chips. This is always the first to go when I take these to potlucks
Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 6 cups Rice Krispies
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
Instructions
- In large saucepan, combine sugar and corn syrup (this can also be done in the microwave). Cook over medium heat to dissolve sugar and bring to boil. Do not boil too long or they will harden when cooled. All you want to do here is dissolve the sugar. Remove from heat. Stir in peanut butter. In a large bowl, add the Rice Krispie cereal and peanut butter mixture and mix until well blended. Press cereal mixture into a parchment paper lined or buttered 9X13 inch pan.
- Melt together the chocolate chips and butterscotch chips in a microwave safe bowl or in a saucepan on the stove. Spread combined mixture over top of Rice Krispies mixture. Cool. Cut into bars once chocolate has set and store in an airtight container.
Notes
PRO TIPS:
- The only way you can mess these up is too cook the sugar mixture too long which will cause them to get hard.
- Cut the bars when they are at room temperature for easier cutting.
