What is Fit Foodie Cooking Club?

Recipe of the Month: honey peanut butter scotcheroos

Is there anything better than a scotcheroo? You just can’t beat the peanut butter, butterscotch, and chocolate combination. These are a great dessert bar to make for picnics, birthday parties, potlucks, and just for a tasty treat! And our honey peanut butter scotcheroos are made sans corn syrup and white sugar and taste better than the OG.

All About Honey Peanut Butter Scotcheroos

Ingredients You’ll Need

Peanut butter: our go-to peanut butter for baked goods is Smuckers All-Natural. Honey: honey is used for both sweetness and stickiness. Rice crispies: feel free to either use normal rice crispies cereal or brown rice crispies. We’ve tried this recipe with both. Chocolate chips: the chocolate topping is made from chocolate chips. You can use either semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips. Butterscotch chips: every scotcheroo deserves a fair share of butterscotch chips! Coconut oil: coconut oil is used to slightly soften the chocolate topping so it’s easy to bite through.

Tools You’ll Need

A few tips

Serve a crowd: Feel free to cut these healthy scotcheroos into huge squares for a filling dessert, or cut them into bite-sized pieces for a sweet treat that serves a crowd. Better than the OG Easy to make No white sugar or corn syrup Peanut Butter Freeze ’em! We love to keep our bite-sized scotcheroos in the freezer for an easy dessert that we can just put on a platter and serve!
