No Bake Football Scotcheroos
These easy no bake cereal treats will be a hit at any tailgate and especially a Super Bowl party! These taste just like the classic peanut butter and chocolate scotcheroos but look so adorable as little footballs!
Ingredients
- 1 cup corn syrup
- ¾ cup sugar
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 4 cups crisp rice cereal
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 cups butterscotch chips
- ⅓ cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Combine corn syrup and sugar in a medium saucepan and heat over medium-low heat just until the mixture begins to boil, stirring constantly.
- Immediately remove mixture from heat and stir in the peanut butter until smooth.
- Add the crisp rice cereal and stir until well coated. Spread mixture into the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch pan. Let cool for about 2 hours.
- Once cooled, cut and shape the bars into small football shapes or use a football-shaped cookie cutter, if available.
- Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and butterscotch chips in a microwave safe bowl. Heat in 30-second increments and stir. Repeat until melted. Do not overheat or the chocolate will be crumbly and ruined.
- Carefully dip the tops and sides footballs into the chocolate mixture and place on a tray lined with parchment paper or waxed paper. Let cool completely.
- Once the chocolate is set, melt the white chocolate chips and pipe white laces on the tops. Let harden and enjoy!
