Ingredients
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 18 ounces creamy peanut butter (2 1/4 cups, see note 1)
- 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal (see note 2)
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips (see note 3)
Instructions
- Coat a 9-inch by 13-inch pan with butter or nonstick spray. Combine corn syrup and sugar in a large stock pot or Dutch oven and bring to a boil.
- Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter. Add cereal to pot and stir until evenly coated. Press into prepared pan.
- In medium sauce pan, combine butterscotch chips and chocolate chips and heat until melted and smooth. Spread evenly over cereal bars and cool completely. Cut into squares.
Notes
- Creamy peanut butter: I prefer store-bought instead of Homemade Peanut Butter here which makes this recipe extra easy.
- Rice Krispies: Rice Krispies are the gold standard for Scotcheroos, but maybe you prefer something else. It's okay to substitute Cheerios, Special K cereal, Chex cereal, or cornflakes.
- Chocolate chips: Or substitute semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- Yield: This recipe makes one 9-inch by 13-inch baking pan full of Scotcheroos. You can cut them any size you choose, but the nutrition information in the recipe card is for 32 pieces (make 4 cuts the long way and 8 cuts the short way).
- Storage: Store the bars at room temperature in an air-tight container or covered with plastic wrap for up to 5 days.
- Freezer: These freeze like a dream! Once they’re completely cool, wrap up the whole pan in foil and freeze. Or place the cut squares in a single layer in a freezer bag and seal well. Thaw at room temperature before enjoying.
