Keto Rice Krispie Treats Scotcheroos Recipes

Steps:

• Line a 13-by-9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides. Spray the parchment with cooking spray. Measure out the cereal and peanut butter. You want to have them ready before cooking the sugar.
• In a large pot (large enough to hold the cereal) combine the sugar, corn syrup and butter. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring only for the first 30 seconds or so to combine the mixture.
• Once the bubbles have reached about an inch from the edge of the pot (or 170 degrees on an instant-read thermometer), cook for 90 seconds more until it reaches about 235 degrees. Remove from the heat.
• Immediately stir in the peanut butter, vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon salt until combined. Add the rice cereal, and stir until everything is evenly coated. Transfer to the prepared pan, and use an offset spatula to flatten the mixture into an even layer. Let cool completely.
• In a small microwave-safe bowl, heat the chocolate and butterscotch chips in 30-second bursts, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Spread over the top of the bars, and sprinkle with salt and peanuts, if using. Let the chocolate set at room temperature.
• Lift out using the paper overhang and transfer to a cutting board. Cut into bars to serve.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine sugar and corn syrup. Heat just until bubbly (Do not boil or the bars become a little hard).
• Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter. Stir until well blended, then gently stir in cereal.
• Press mixture lightly into buttered 9 x 13 pan.
• Combine chocolate and butterscotch chips and melt in microwave or double boiler.
• Immediately spread over bars in pan.
• Refrigerate just until chocolate sets and hardens slightly.
• Cut in squares. Makes 3 to 4 dozen bars.
