How to make: Scotcheroos

Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.

Place 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal into a large bowl and set aside.

Add 1 cup light corn syrup, 1 cup peanut butter, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a medium-sized sauce pot.

Place the pot over medium-low heat and stir constantly until fully melted.

Take off the heat and immediately stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.

Moving quickly, pour the mixture into the bowl with the Rice Krispies cereal and stir well with a wooden spoon until the cereal is coated.

Gently press the mixture into the prepared baking dish; do not press down too hard, or the end result will be too condensed. Set aside.

Add 11 ounce bag butterscotch chips and 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips to a medium-sized sauce pot.

Place over medium-low heat, stirring constantly so it doesn’t burn until it is completely smooth.

Pour the mixture over top of the cereal and smooth it out.

Allow the bars to sit for at least 2 hours for the top to set. Cut into bars and serve.
