I’ve been making Scotcheroos since they were introduced on a Kellogg’s Rice Krispies TV commercial in 1965. I was 12. I vowed to make them if my mother bought the ingredients. They’ve been a family favorite ever since. Your addition of extra peanut butter and butter make them more creamy. Thanks Sam!

These were scrumptious! Though I did have to substitute a couple ingredients, since I didn’t have any corn syrup.
Instead of the corn syrup and sugar, I used 2 squares of Vanilla (Almond) Bark candy. I melted it in the microwave along with the butter and peanut butter. And since this candy has sugar and vanilla in it already, I didn’t have to add any sugar or extra vanilla.
With my substitution, the Rice Krispie bottom turned out fine, and held together nicely. Then I followed the rest of the directions for the chocolate and butterscotch topping, and it turned out very delicious!
Thanks for the recipe, it’s a nice treat, to share with others!

No one was more surprised than me, when these were so delicious! I missed out on the Scotcharoo rage when I was a kid, because my mother refused to make them, and I still can’t figure out why. I was really expecting something mediocre, but these did not disappoint. They are more delicious than anyone could expect for such a simple concoction. Thanks!

I have never seen anyone put the the actual measurements of ingredients in with the text of the instructions. it’s absolutely marvelous, especially when you’re looking at a recipe online. you have to scroll up and down to see the ingredients amounts. it’s not like on paper so this was brilliant. not a big deal in a simple recipe but just wonderful

Made these twice in the past week. One for each of my grandchildren’s workplace. Wanted you to know these are still a bit hit from when I made these many years ago. Very addicting with a great crispiness and smooth flavors.

My grandma made these from the time I was little (I’m 52!) up until her death in 2002. Then my uncle took over making them and has been doing so ever since. We all fight over them

These were so good. I’ve never had them before so I didn’t know what to expect, but these have incredible texture and the combination of peanut butter, chocolate, and butterscotch is incredible. They remind me of haystack cookies but with a better texture. So good!

Made this yesterday for my grandkids weekly visit. They cut beautifully and tasted fantastic. I let them set overnight before cutting because the chocolate topping was quite soft for a long time. Yet another wonderful recipe from you. Thanks again.

These are so easy to make and are crowd favorites since I cut them into 1 inch squares since they are so rich with the topping!
