Best Ever Chocolate Scotcheroos Recipe (Soft &amp; Chewy)

crispy rice cereal

chocolate chips

butterscotch chips

Line a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Set aside.

To a large mixing bowl, add crispy rice cereal. Set aside.

To a medium saucepan over low heat, add corn syrup and sugar. Whisk continuously to create a grainy paste.

Once paste is formed, increase the burner heat and allow the mixture to come to a boil, then immediately remove from the heat.

Stir in peanut butter. Pour mixture into the bowl with cereal. Using a heat-proof spatula/spoon, stir to combine.

Grease your hands with butter or non-stick cooking spray. Using your greased hands, press the scotcharoos mixture into the prepared baking dish.

To a microwaveable bowl, add the chocolate and butterscotch chips. Microwave on High power in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until mixture is smooth.

Pour over the top of the cereal bars and use an offset spatula to spread into an even layer.

Refrigerate for 1 hour. Remove from the refrigerator and allow the scotcheroos to come to room temperature for easier cutting.

Donna's scotcharoos are the best! I added a handful of chopped nuts for extra crunch, and they turned out amazing.

Super easy to make, and the flavors are out of this world! 5 stars!

These are a family favorite!  First time I made these I boiled the sugar mixture.  Don't do that!!!  We had to put them in the microwave before we could eat them, they were so hard.  When the sugar mixture just barely starts to bubble, remove from the heat.  Will be making these for many years to come.

We call these Annabelle’s Scotcharoos after my mom! They are wonderful. (I use a pizza cutter to cut these before they cool).  I’ve never known anyone else to make these🥰

I doubled this recipe and it is delicious! Just a couple of tips:
I put my full box cereal in large stock pot and proceeded to pour the sugar, Karo and peanut butter (cooked as directed) into cereal but had tough time getting the cereal in bottom of pot combined! I recommend if doubling the recipe I will do in reverse next time! Cook the sugar Karo in stock pot add peanut then gradually add cereal a little at a time! I think this will work better for me!

These easy no-bake Scotcharoos are chewy, rich, and full of classic peanut butter flavor, finished with a smooth chocolate-butterscotch topping. Perfect for potlucks, bake sales, or anytime you need a quick dessert that everyone loves!

Easy No-Bake Scotcharoos

rice

Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper, leaving extra hanging over the sides for easy removal later. Place the rice cereal in a large mixing bowl and set it aside.

Add the sugar and corn syrup to a medium saucepan and warm the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture looks smooth and glossy. Do not allow it to boil. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the peanut butter until fully combined and smooth.

Pour the warm peanut butter mixture over the cereal and gently fold everything together until the cereal is evenly coated. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and press it into an even layer using light pressure to avoid packing it too tightly.

Combine the chocolate chips and butterscotch chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in short intervals, stirring between each, until melted and smooth. Spread the melted topping evenly over the cereal layer.

Let the bars sit at room temperature until the topping has set, or refrigerate briefly to speed up the process. Once firm, lift the bars from the pan and slice into squares before serving.
