Chocolate Scotcheroos

I don't even know how many time I have made these but they are a favorite and get requested quite often.  They are absolutely delicious and incredibly easy to make.  I can whip some up in 10 minutes.  I know the recipe by heart but I just copied and pasted this below from Kellogg's website.

Ingredients and Directions:


  • 1 cup light corn syrup
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 6 cups Kellogg's® Cocoa Krispies® cereal
  • OR
  • 1 package (6 oz., 1 cup) semi-sweet chocolate morsels
  • or 6 cups Kellogg's® Rice Krispies® cereal
  • 1 cup butterscotch chips

  • 1. Place corn syrup and sugar into 3-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until sugar dissolves and mixture begins to boil. Remove from heat. Stir in peanut butter. Mix well. Add KELLOGG'S RICE KRISPIES cereal. Stir until well coated. Press mixture into 13 x 9 x 2-inch pan coated with cooking spray or lightly with butter. Set aside.

    2. Melt chocolate and butterscotch chips together in 1-quart saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly. Spread evenly over cereal mixture. Let stand until firm. Cut into 2 x 1-inch bars when cool.

    Note: Before measuring the corn syrup, coat your measuring cup with cooking spray--the syrup will pour easily out of the cup.

  1. Try using Brow Rice crispies from the health food store next time...just as delicious and seemingly healthier. Always trying so hard to make something that tastes this good a little good for you!

  2. I also have a great recipe for a pumpkin smoothie that is fat free and sugar free and about 110 calories for a 2 cup portion. Give it a whirl in your ninja.
    1/2 cup water
    1/2 cup canned pumpkin
    Tsp pumpkin pie spice
    Artificial sweetener (I like to combine Splenda and pure via to taste)
    1/2 cup fat free cottage cheese
    1 tbsp fat free sugar free vanilla instant pudding mix
    17 ice cubes

    Blend until smooth and enjoy.
