Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 to 1-1/2 pkg butterscotch chips
1/2 to 1 c peanut butter
6 c rice crispy cereal (or crushed corn flakes)

Steps:

  • 1. Melt butterscotch chips in double boiler and add peanut butter and stir until peanut butter is melted.
  • 2. Pour over cereal that has been put in a large mixing bowl.
  • 3. Put waxed paper on cookie sheet(s) and place cereal mixture by the spoonful (any size spoon depending on how large you want your cookies) onto the cookie sheet. Place in refrigerator or other cool place (I put mine outside in the winter as I live in Michigan) and chill until set. Keep uneaten cookies in a cold or cool place (especially in hot weather) as they will break up.

PEANUT BUTTER SCOTCHIES RECIPE - (5/5)

Provided by Renna

Number Of Ingredients 3

12 ounce package butterscotch chips
1/2 C Peanut butter
3-4 Cups Cereal (I use Special K, you can use rice krispies, cornflakes, etc)

Steps:

  • Melt chips in microwave until smooth and creamy. Add peanut butter and stir. Stir in cereal until completely coated. Press into 9×13 pan. Place in fridge for fifteen minutes or until completely cool, cut into bars.

Tips:

  • Use a candy thermometer to ensure the sugar syrup reaches the correct temperature. This is essential for achieving the right consistency of the scotchies.
  • Be careful not to overcook the sugar syrup. If it gets too hot, it will become too hard and brittle.
  • Make sure the butter and peanut butter are at room temperature before mixing them together. This will help them to combine smoothly and evenly.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the scotchies tough.
  • Drop the batter by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheet. This will help them to spread out evenly and form round cookies.
  • Bake the scotchies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Once the scotchies are baked, let them cool completely on the baking sheet before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

Peanut butter scotchies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their chewy texture, rich peanut butter flavor, and sweet butterscotch chips, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a simple and satisfying snack or dessert, give peanut butter scotchies a try. You won't be disappointed!
