Time to learn how to make Scotcheroos with this easy homemade recipe. If you are a fan of chocolate, peanut butter, fudge, and Rice Krispies, you will love these Scotcheroos!

Scotcheroos are a sort of Rice Krispies treat, without marshmallows, and covered in melted chocolate. The butterscotch chips in it make them divine. They were introduced by Kellogg’s in the mid-1960’s and the recipe was printed on the Rice Krispies box.

This yummy no-bake treat is so amazing and only requires 6 ingredients. They are super simple to make if I can do it, you can do it. Let’s get started!

Ingredients

1 cup white granulated sugar 200g
1 cup corn syrup 340g
1 cup peanut butter 240g
6 cups crisped rice/Rice Krispies 164g
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips 170g
1 cup butterscotch chips 170g

Instructions

Line a 9x13 inch pan with parchment paper or spray it with cooking spray.

Add the sugar and corn syrup to a medium pot. Set the burner to medium heat and melt the sugar. Stir the mixture and heat it until it boils. After it boils allow it to continue boiling for 20 seconds or so then remove it from the heat.

Immediately add in the peanut butter and stir until it is melted and the mixture is smooth.

Pour the peanut butter mixture over a large bowl of the Rice Krispies cereal, stir to combine. Work quickly, because it sets fairly fast. Then pour it into the pan and spread it out evenly as well as press it down firmly.

Melt the chocolate and butterscotch chips in the microwave or on the stovetop with the double boiler method. If using the microwave, use a microwave-safe bowl and use bursts of 30 seconds and then stir, until melted.

For the double boiler method, add a pot with about an inch of water to the burner, set the heat to medium. Place a larger pyrex or metal bowl on top of the pot, and add the chocolate chips and butterscotch, stir periodically until melted.

Pour the melted chocolate over the pan and spread it evenly with a spatula. Let the pan cool for 15 to 20 minutes before putting it in the fridge to cool and set for about 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Once set, remove the pan from the fridge, pull up on the parchment paper removing the treat, and then cut it up into squares. Enjoy!
