Ingredients

11 ounces butterscotch chips
1 cup creamy peanut butter
2 cups mini marshmallows
3 cups crispy rice cereal
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
0.25 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the butterscotch chips and peanut butter.

Step 2

Microwave the mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring thoroughly after each, until fully melted and smooth. This should take about 1-2 minutes in total.

Step 3

Once melted, stir in the vanilla extract and salt until well combined.

Step 4

Allow the mixture to cool slightly for 2-3 minutes, then gently fold in the mini marshmallows and crispy rice cereal.

Step 5

Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 6

Let the Peanut Butter Scotchies set at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or place them in the refrigerator for faster setting.

Step 7

Once firm, transfer the Scotchies to an airtight container for storage. They can be kept at room temperature for up to 5 days or refrigerated for prolonged freshness.
