How to Make Chocolate Scotchies

  1. Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan and a spoon with 1 tablespoon of butter.
  2. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine 1/2 cup honey, 1 cup butterscotch chips, and 1 cup creamy peanut butter.
  3. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until completely melted and smooth (approximately 1-2 minutes total). Do not overheat.
  4. Remove from microwave and stir in 5 cups of Rice Krispies cereal until evenly coated.
  5. Quickly press the mixture firmly into the prepared 9x13 inch pan using the buttered back of the spoon to prevent sticking.
  6. In a separate microwave-safe bowl, melt 12 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth and melted.
  7. Pour the melted chocolate evenly over the rice krispie mixture in the pan.
  8. Spread the chocolate evenly with a spatula or the back of a clean spoon.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has completely hardened.
  10. Cut into squares and enjoy your Chocolate Scotchies!
