My favorite part of Peanut Butter Rice Krispies is the chocolate-butterscotch topping. I was to lazy to makerice krispies, so instead I combined my favorite flavors from my rice krispy treat recipe with my Chocolate Peanut Butter Krackle Candy Bar recipe and created Crispy Butterscotch Bark!
I enjoy making bark candy for my family. You can use what ever ingredients you have on hand for inspiration in your creations. Barks are also fast and easy to make. You just melt the chocolate, add something scrumptious, drop the mixture by the spoonful on to a tray, swirl to make the globs look elegant, and chill. Voila, almost instant candy!
Crispy Butterscotch Bark
Ingredients
- 1 package butterscotch chips
- 1 tablespoons shortening
- 1 package semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 cups rice krispies I used gluten-free
Instructions
- Cover a cookie sheet with foil.
- Melt the butterscotch chips and shortening according to package directions. Once melted stir in 1 cup of the rice krispies.
- Melt the chocolate chips according to package directions. Once melted stir in 1 cup of the rice krispies.
- Alternate spooning the melted chocolate chips and melted butterscotch chips on to the cookie sheet. Then use a spatula to semi blend the two and spread it evenly over the foil.
- Let sit for 2 hours to firm up or put it in the freezer for 30 minutes. Break into pieces.

It would be hard for me to pass up making rice crispy treats, which are my favorite, though butterscotch is a close second. What a sweet treat!
