Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 1 ⅓ cups Light Corn Syrup
  • 1 ⅓ cups Peanut Butter
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 6 cups Rice Krispies
  • 1 cup Chocolate Chips
  • 1 cup Butterscotch Chips

Instructions
 

  • Spray a 9 x 13 pan with non-stick spray and set aside. Pour Rice Krispies into a large bowl and set aside.
  • In a medium-sized saucepan, add sugar and corn syrup. Place the pan on the stovetop over low heat, stirring until just warm, not hot.
  • Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in peanut butter and vanilla until smooth and well combined.
  • Pour the peanut butter mixture over the Rice Krispies. Mix well until all the cereal is evenly coated.
  • Combine chocolate and butterscotch chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between, until smooth and melted. Spread over the Rice Krispies and let the chocolate harden before cutting.

Notes

  • Keep the sugar and corn syrup mixture on low heat to prevent overheating;
  • Stir the Rice Krispies gently to avoid crushing them
  • Spread the melted chocolate evenly with a spatula
  • For cleaner cuts, let the scotcheroos cool fully or refrigerate briefly
  • Balance sweetness by using semi-sweet chocolate chips.
