Scotcheroos



I spotted this recipe on Jennifer of Cooking for Comfort blog. I thought that looks yummy and easy. Last week, I decided to make them. I needed a dessert for dinner at my mom's and since it was after work, I wanted something easy. I had all the ingredients. All I can say is this is one of the best desserts I have ever had. My son went nuts when I gave him a piece! He LOVED it! I will definitely make this one over and over again!

Ingredients

1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup creamy peanut butter
6 cups Rice Krispies (You can even use generic, I do.)
12 ounce pkg. semi sweet chocolate chips (2 cups)
1 cup butterscotch chips

Directions:

Place Rice Krispies in a large mixing bowl. Place corn syrup, sugar, and peanut butter in a microwaveable bowl. Heat for two minutes, stirring mixture after 1 minute. Stir again after the second minute. Pour over rice krispies and mix well. Pour into a greased 13×9 pan. Press mixture into an even layer. Set aside.

In microwaveable container, place chocolate and butterscotch chips. Heat in 30 second intervals stirring and heating alternately until mixture is smooth. Pour over cereal layer and spread to cover evenly.

Place pan in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to set the chocolate. Cut into bars and store at room temperature.
