How to Make Goober Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the base ingredients (see below) and press firmly into an ungreased 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake for 12-16 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- Remove from oven and evenly sprinkle 3 cups of mini marshmallows over the base. Return to the oven until marshmallows are puffed and lightly golden, about 2-3 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely.
- While the base cools, prepare the topping: In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine 1/2 cup light corn syrup, 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 cup butterscotch chips. Stir constantly until smooth and melted.
- Remove from heat and immediately stir in 4 cups Rice Krispies cereal and 1 cup salted peanuts.
- Once the base is completely cool, spread the topping evenly over the marshmallow layer.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the bars to set before cutting into squares.
