This Best Ever Scotcheroos recipe elevates a classic dessert to new heights, promising a taste experience that’s both nostalgic and uniquely indulgent.
Ingredients :
6 cups puffed rice cereal (such as Rice Krispies)
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup milk chocolate chips
1 cup butterscotch chips
Instructions :
Prepare the Peanut Butter Mixture:
In a medium saucepan, combine the light corn syrup and granulated sugar. Heat over medium until the mixture begins to simmer.
Remove the saucepan from heat immediately and whisk in the creamy peanut butter until the mixture is smooth and well-combined. For an alternative method, this step can be done in the microwave. Use a microwave-safe bowl, heating the mixture in 20-30 second intervals and stirring in between until the sugar is fully dissolved into the corn syrup.
Combine with Cereal:
Pour the peanut butter and sugar mixture over the puffed rice cereal in a large mixing bowl. Stir quickly and thoroughly to ensure the cereal is evenly coated before the mixture cools and stiffens.
Form the Base:
Press the cereal mixture firmly into a parchment-lined 9×13 inch casserole dish. Ensure an even layer for the best results.
Melt the Topping:
In a double boiler or using the microwave, melt the milk chocolate chips and butterscotch chips together. If using the microwave, heat in 20-30 second increments, stirring each time until fully melted and smooth.
