Healthy Scotcheroos (Without Corn Syrup!)

Heidi Hunt

Report

These Healthy Scotcheroos are one of my favorite desserts! They're full of all creamy peanut butter, butterscotch and chocolate flavors you love about the classic treat but made without corn syrup. Even better, they have a little bit of extra protein added for the ultimate healthy dessert!

Instructions

Line an 8x8” dish with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, Add the peanut butter, syrup, honey, butterscotch chips and salt. Microwave in 15 second intervals, stirring in between each until the mixture is runny. Then stir in the protein powder.
Fold in the rice krispies until they’re all coated then transfer the mixture to the prepared dish. Make sure to press the mixture down well so it stays together after frozen (I used a piece of parchment paper sprayed with nonstick cooking spray to do this).
Melt chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave safe bowl in 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until melted. Then pour evenly over top and smooth out with a rubber spatula.
Freeze for 30 minutes then slice and enjoy!

Notes

Once chocolate has set, slice bars into individual servings then wrap individually in parchment paper, wax paper or aluminum foil.
I prefer to store these in a freezer-safe zip-top bag in the freezer but you can store in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days.
Be sure to add enough maple syrup and honey so that the rice krispies will stick together. If your mixture still seems kind of dry, add a teaspoon or two until the mixture presses down firmly. Also, make sure you’re pressing down the mixture firmly (I used a piece of parchment paper sprayed with nonstick cooking spray to do this) in the pan.
