No Bake Treats: Scotcharoos Revisited!


Because they are THAT good, I decided I'd post about them 
ONE.MORE.TIME.
Who's going to complain about a super easy and tasty treat???

Take a look below at how easy these Scotcharoos really are!

The Goods:
Crispy Rice Cereal
Corn Syrup
Sugar
Peanut Butter
Butterscotch Chips
Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips

Cook syrup and sugar together over medium heat until sugar is dissolved.
Bring to a boil and remove from heat.
Add the peanut butter and mix well.

Add the rice cereal and mix to combine.
Put into 9x13 baking dish and spread out.

Melt both kinds of chips and spread out evenly over crispy rice.
Let harden, remove from pan and cut into squares.

And devour!!!

Homemade Chewy Granola Bars

I've tried to make Granola a couple times, but for some reason I cannot get it to come out right! Because of that I was a little reluctant to make these granola bars, but they sounded AMAZING and I'd discussed it with my brother so I decided I'd give it a go. Plus - I already had almost everything I needed on hand so I wasn't going to be spending that much!

I won't say anymore before I show you how to make these homemade treats!

The Goods:
Oats
Sugar
Butter
Raisins
Craisins
Pecans
Almonds
Shredded Coconut
Peanut Butter
Honey
Corn Syrup
Vanilla
Cinnamon
Salt

aka 
The Kitchen Sink!

Combine ALL the dry ingredients including the fruit, 
nuts and chocolate. 

Mix together the melted butter, corn syrup, 
honey and peanut butter.

Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and combine. 

It'll look something like this!

Dump into a parchment lined square baking dish.

Bake at 350 for about 30 minutes.

When done, it should still be a little soft to the touch!

Once cool, cut into individual bars.

I wrapped them in plastic wrap and 
kept them in a zipper baggie.

I'm happy to report that my track record with regular granola did NOT follow me and these came out amazing! I am, without a doubt, going to be making them again and I cannot wait to try other fun combinations!!
