If you’re searching for an easy, crowd-pleasing dessert, we’ve got you covered! These Scotcheroos take the standard rice krispie treat concept and dramatically increase the ante. These no-bake bars will be the talk of the party thanks to their chewy peanut butter base and rich chocolate butterscotch coating. Be warned: it’s nearly impossible to limit yourself to just one.What’s the best part? It simply takes a few ingredients to make these bars!

To begin, combine the sugar, peanut butter, and corn syrup in a small pot and bring to a boil. Pour the hot mixture over the rice krispie cereal and toss until evenly coated. The coated cereal is then pressed into a greased 913-inch pan; I’ve found that using a greased spatula works nicely for this so you don’t wind up with a sticky mess on to your spoon.Finally, melt together the chocolate and butterscotch chips and spread the mixture over the compacted cereal.

Now comes the difficult part: waiting for the bars to cool before cutting into them!These Scotcheroo bars are ideal for a quick dessert, especially during the hot summer months when you don’t want to switch on the oven. With their chewy texture and rich flavors, they’re sure to become a new family favorite. Try the recipe and see for yourself!
