Chex Scotcheroos

Ingredients

6 cups Chex cereal

1 cup light corn syrup

1 cup sugar

1½ cups peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)

1½ cups semi sweet chocolate chips

1½ cups butterscotch chips

½ cup creamy peanut butter

1 teaspoon vanilla

Directions

Butter a large bowl and measure out 6 cups of Chex cereal. Set aside. Butter a 9×13 dish and set aside.

In a small saucepan, stir together the corn syrup and sugar over medium heat. Once boiling, immediately remove from heat and stir in 1½ cups of peanut butter. Pour over the cereal and stir together until cereal is completely coated. Pour cereal mixture into the 9×13 dish and press with your hands to even out. It’s easier than using a spatula or wooden spoon.

Using a microwave safe dish or a double boiler, melt together chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, ½ cup of creamy peanut butter and vanilla. If microwaving, heat in 30 second intervals, stirring in between to prevent the chocolate from burning.

Once smooth, spread over the cereal with a spatula.

Allow to cool completely at room temperature or place in the fridge.

Cut into squares and enjoy.
