Gooey, full or peanut butter and topped with chocolate -- it's hard to eat just one! My mom made these quite often when we were growing up so I consider them to be dessert comfort food.
Scotch-A-Roos Makes a 13” x 9” pan
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup granulated sugar
6 cups Rice Krispies or other crisp rice cereal
1 (6 oz.) pkg. semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 (6 oz.) pkg. butterscotch chips
1. Mix peanut butter, syrup, and sugar in a medium-sized saucepan; bring to a slight boil. Stir until creamy.
2. Take mixture off the heat and mix with cereal.
3. Spread mixture in 13” x 9” pan. (See tip for using foil or parchment lined pans – this will allow for easy removal of the bars for cutting.)
4. Melt chocolate and butterscotch chips together on top of stove over low heat (or in a double boiler). Or, microwave -- start with 1 to 2 minutes, then, stirring intermittently, 30-second intervals until melted.
5. Spread melted chips over cereal mixture.
6. Refrigerate until chocolate-butterscotch mixture hardens, about 30 minutes.
7. Cut into desired size bars – 2” x 2” is standard.
