I have been craving these like crazy lately and finally made a pan this weekend! My cravings were not disappointed. This is an easy, yummy dessert that I crave for the chewy texture. So good!
Chocolate Scotcheroos- AKA- Special K Bars
1 cup white sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup peanut butter
6 cups crispy rice cereal ( some recipes I see say Rice Krispies- I only use Special K Rice Flakes)
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup butterscotch chips
Butter a 9x13 pan.
In saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar and corn syrup- bringing to a rolling boil (do not over boil or they will be hard as rocks). remove from heat and stir in peanut butter. Mix in cereal until evenly coated. Press into pan. In glass dish (measuring cup) microwave chips, stopping and stirring every 30-45 seconds to prevent scorching, until smooth and well blended. Spread over top and chill until set. Cut into bars.
**Note- they will be very hard to cut when they have been refrigerated for a while. I like them chilled, but I do set them out a little ahead of time so they aren't quite as hard. Enjoy the chewy chocolaty goodness!
So, how easy are these? You can eat them with peanut butter in them?
