I have been making these for years and they’re my husbands most favorite dessert. These are a twist on the regular Scotcheroo recipe because they’re made with Chex instead of regular Rice Krispies. {Yes, I know they have gluten-free Rice Krispies but for some reason, they don’t carry them at my usual grocery store so Chex is a delicious substitute!}
If you’ve never had Scotcheroos before, you’re in for a treat. And if you HAVE had them, I guarantee that these will be the best you’ve ever had!

Scotcheroos
Print Recipe
Ingredients
6 cups Rice or Corn Chex (Gluten-free Rice Krispies would probably be good too)
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups peanut butter
1 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cups butterscotch chips (sometimes these have hidden gluten in the form of barley, so check the label and leave them out if you can’t find GF)
Directions
Grease a large round bowl and pour the cereal in. Set aside.
Grease a 9×13 inch pan. Set aside.
In a pan on the stove, combine the corn syrup and sugar. Stir over medium/high heat until it comes to a boil.
Immediately remove from heat and stir in 1 1/2 cups of peanut butter. Immediately pour this mixture over the cereal and fold in. Pour into the 9×13 pan.
In a microwaveable 4 cup measuring cup (or other microwave-safe dishes) combine the butterscotch chips and chocolate chips. Microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring very well after each interval, until it is completely melted and smooth. It should take about 1 minute and 30 seconds.
Pour over the bars. Allow to cool completely at room temperature before cutting.
Do you ever make these dairy free for Aniston? I haven’t been able to find dairy free butterscotch chips.
We do! Guittard has the dairy-free butterscotch chips we love!
They carry the big bag of Malt o meal rice Krispies (and they are gluten free) at walmart!
oh, nice! Thanks for the tip!
We make these with special k cereal and call them “special k bars”. Idk if special k is gluten free though…
I’m not sure! But you can easily check the box! I bet they’re super yummy!
