Recipe View Patience is a Virtue: Allow the Scotcharoos to cool completely at room temperature before cutting them into 24 squares. (20 minutes)

For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet.
If you don't have butterscotch chips on hand, you can substitute an equal amount of white chocolate chips or peanut butter chips.
Store Scotcharoos in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain their crisp texture.

    I used salted butter instead of unsalted, and the slight saltiness really complemented the sweetness.

    I added a little bit of marshmallow cream to the peanut butter mixture and it made them even gooier!
