Scotch-A-Roo's


This has been one of my all time favorite recipes! I hadn't made it for awhile but my daughter in law made it the last time she came to the cabin. Thing was, hers tasted better than mine! I hate to admit that but I had to take a cooking lesson from my 22 year old daughter in law. Hers were soft and chewy and mine were harder. In comparing our recipes, she just cooked the karo syrup mixture a shorter time. I'm giving you directions for her recipe. These are easy to make and EVERYONE loves them. Great for picnics.

1 cup karo syrup
1 cup white sugar
1 cup peanut butter
5 to 6 cups Rice Krispies, depending how gooey you want them (Usually I add 5 to 5 1/2 cups or so)


Topping:

1 cup chocolate chips
1 cup butterscotch chips

Combine karo syrup and sugar. Mix and bring to a boil for 30 seconds or so. Take off heat and
add peanut butter. Stir. Add Rice Krispies. Put mixture into a buttered 9 x 13 inch pan. (If you like a thicker bar, you can put in a 9 x 9 pan.)


Melt the chocolate chips and butterscotch chips for 45 seconds in the microwave or until melted
so you can mix chips together. Add to the top of warm krispies. Let cool and enjoy! Yum!!!

Thanks for the great recipe!
