Ingredients

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Spatula
  • Spoon
  • 9x13 inch pan
  • Knife

Instructions

  1. In a big microwave-safe bowl, melt peanut butter and sugar-free maple syrup. Sprinkle in a pinch of salt and stir until smooth.

  2. Add the cereal and mix until they're all coated.

  3. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.

  4. Put the peanut butter mix into the pan and press it down to make a solid layer.

  5. In another bowl, melt the chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and coconut oil. Stir until smooth.

  6. Pour the melted chocolate mix over the peanut butter layer and spread it out evenly.

  7. Put the pan in the fridge for 2-3 hours until everything is set.

  8. Once it's firm, lift it out of the pan using the parchment paper. Cut it into bars or squares.

  9. Serve and enjoy these delicious Peanut Butter Chocolate Crispy Bars!

Tami’s notes

Experiment with different chocolate flavors by using dark chocolate or white chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet.

Keep the bars refrigerated in an airtight container for up to a week. They can also be frozen for longer storage.

If the bars are too firm from the fridge, let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving for a softer texture.
