It’s been a long time since I made these delicious little bar cookies. I haven’t avoided making them because they aren’t any good, rather they are too good! I don’t have any will-power these days. I made a pan of these for a family reunion . . . that way I knew I’d be safe.
The trick to these bars, is making sure that you cook the karo and sugar mixture slowly. You don’t want it to still be grainy or sugary when it comes to a boil. These chewy bars will be gobbled up very quickly. The butterscotch chocolate top is perfect with the chewy peanut butter base. If you don’t care for Butterscotch chips, simply use all Chocolate. You can even add a couple Tablespoons of Peanut Butter to the melted Chocolate as well. It’s a nice twist on the regular Marshmallow Rice Crispy treats that we all love. Try these soon, your kids will love them!
