If you've ever had Scotcharoos (cooked corn syrup-butter-sugar/peanut butter-rice krispies base with melted chocolate/butterscotch chip topping), they're reeeeeeally good! When I was flipping thru cookie recipes recently, I found an easy recipe, changed a few things, added a few ingredients and came up with a simple cookie recipe that tastes a LOT like classic Scotcharoos! It's a 'cheat' recipe with cake mix, but until I figure out a 'scratch' recipe, this will have to do for now! :)
Heat oven to 350 degrees.
In a mixing bowl, mix together:
1 package of chocolate cake mix (Duncan Hines or Betty Crocker devils food or dark chocolate...)
1 stick (1/2 cup) melted butter
1 Tblsp. vegetable oil
1 tsp. vanilla
1 beaten egg plus one egg white only
Mix together well - add:
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 cup rice krispies
1 cup butterscotch chips
Drop onto ungreased (or parchment lined) baking sheets by heaping tsps. - flatten slightly
Bake for 10 minutes - remove from sheets after cooled slightly.
