Report
This easy scotcheroos recipe calls for a handful of ingredients, no baking, and is made without corn syrup. A family favorite, the combination of peanut butter, chocolate, butterscotch and crispy rice cereal results in the most mouth-watering treat! Make it for everyday enjoyment, or for special occasions and holidays.

Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups (345g) unsweetened peanut butter
- ½ cup (170g) pure maple syrup or honey
- ½ cup (14g, 8 Tbsp) unsalted butter or coconut oil
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract optional
- 4 cups (112g) crispy rice cereal
- 1/4 tsp sea salt to taste
Topping:
- 1 cup (170g) chocolate chips
- 1 cup (170g) butterscotch chips
- 2 Tbsp (29g) unsalted butter
Instructions
- Line a 9” x 9” square pan with parchment paper. If you don’t have parchment paper, you can spray the baking pan with cooking spray.
- Transfer the peanut butter, pure maple syrup, butter, and a pinch of sea salt to a large thick-bottomed pot. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the ingredients are melted together and combined. Stir in the vanilla extract, followed by the crispy rice cereal until everything is well combined.
- Transfer the rice krispie mixture to the prepared pan and press it gently into an even layer.
- Microwave the chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and butter in a microwave-safe bowl for 20-second intervals, stirring well in between each interval, until melted, about 2 to 2.5 minutes total.
- Pour the chocolate mixture over the peanut butter layer and use a rubber spatula to spread it evenly. If you'd like, sprinkle the melted chocolate mixture with flaky sea salt.
- Freeze bars for 30 minutes, or until the chocolate layer is completely set up.
- Remove the dish from the freezer and allow it to sit for 10-15 minutes to come closer to room temperature. Pull on the parchment paper to release the full batch and transfer it to a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to cut individual slices, making any size you like. I recommend cutting the batch into 25 squares. Serve and enjoy!
