BUTTERSCOTCH RICE KRISPIES® BARS
This is what I grew up with in lieu of 'scotcheroos'. They are simpler to make and pack a much richer flavor which means when I bite into similar recipes (hoping for this flavor), I am disappointed and want my homemade version!

PEANUT BUTTER AND BUTTERSCOTCH RICE KRISPIES SQUARES
Another recipe from the 1980 version of the Grace Evangelical Congregational Church cookbook from Muir, Pennsylvania that was given to me by my Nana when I became an adult. This recipe was submitted to the cookbook by Florence Miller who is my Nana's sister and always called 'Aunt Puss' by myself. I look the most like her than of any of the other Muir family members I have met.

Tips:
- Use fresh peanut butter: Fresh peanut butter will give your Rice Krispie squares a more intense flavor. If you can, try to find a peanut butter that is made with only peanuts and salt, without any added sugar or oil.
- Use creamy peanut butter: Creamy peanut butter will give your Rice Krispie squares a smoother texture. If you prefer a chunkier texture, you can use chunky peanut butter instead.
- Use melted butter: Melted butter will help to bind the ingredients together and create a more cohesive bar. If you use cold butter, the bars will be more crumbly.
- Don't overcook the marshmallows: Overcooked marshmallows will make your Rice Krispie squares tough and chewy. Cook the marshmallows until they are just melted and smooth, but not boiling.
- Add the Rice Krispies cereal last: Once the marshmallows are melted, remove the pan from the heat and add the Rice Krispies cereal. Stir until the cereal is evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture.
- Press the mixture firmly into the pan: Once the Rice Krispie mixture is in the pan, press it down firmly with a spatula or the back of a spoon. This will help to create a dense and compact bar.
- Let the bars cool completely before cutting them: Allow the Rice Krispie squares to cool completely before cutting them into bars. This will help to prevent them from crumbling.
Conclusion:
Peanut Butter and Butterscotch Rice Krispie Squares are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their gooey marshmallow center, peanut butter flavor, and butterscotch chips, these bars are sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a sweet and satisfying snack, give these Rice Krispie squares a try!
