Scotcheroos
Scotcheroos are the Midwest potluck classic: chewy, no-bake peanut butter crispy rice bars capped with a glossy layer of melted chocolate and butterscotch. Instead of marshmallows, the cereal is bound with a quick corn syrup and sugar mixture enriched with peanut butter, which keeps the bars soft and fudgy-chewy rather than sticky. The one trick that matters is pulling the syrup off the heat the instant it reaches a boil — that is what keeps them tender instead of tooth-breaking.
