Peggy Sue's Scotcheroos Bars

Peggisue's Note:

These are my daughter's favorite! If you have the time it is fun to decorate each square to your liking with cake decorating icing.

• Total Time: 40 mins
• Prep Time: 20 mins
• Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 24

• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup white syrup (Karo)
• 1 cup chunky peanut butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 6 cups Rice Krispies
• 2 cups milk chocolate chips
• 2 cups butterscotch chips

Directions:

1. Bring the sugar and syrup to a boil and remove from heat. Add peanut butter and vanilla; stir until blended and smooth.
2. Pour peanut butter mixture over Rice Krispies and mix well. The cereal will incorporate, it may take some patience! Press into a buttered 9x13 pan. I usually put a little butter on my hands and pat evenly into pan.
3. Melt chips on 50 % power in your microwave in 1 minute intervals. Keep stirring to make sure the chips melt evenly and to avoid baking the chips. Once the chips are melted to a satiny texture spread over top of Rice Krispie mixture. Let cool. Cover and keep in refrigerator if weather is warm.
4. These are sweet, when cutting keep the squares small!
