Butterscotch Pretzel Bars

Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr

Mmmmm butterscotch! This super simple recipe was created when I stood in front of my pantry and decided to create something simple. The butterscotch chips caught my eye, and marshmallows next to them just made sense. I threw it all together, crossed my fingers, and…. it’s AMAZING! Didn’t know that butterscotch and peanut butter went well together? Try my Tastes Like Christmas Fudge!

WHAT YOU NEED:

  • 1 1/2 Tablespoons heavy whipping cream
  • 1 1/5 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 1/5 cups butterscotch chips
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows
  • 2 cups pretzels (crushed slightly)

MAKE THEM:

Place the heavy whipping cream and semisweet chocolate chips in a small bowl.

Microwave until smooth.

Lightly crush the pretzels, and lay them on the bottom of a 9″x13″ greased pan

Pour the chocolate over the pretzels and smooth over.

In another small bowl, microwave the butterscotch chips and peanut butter until smooth.

Pour over chocolate, and squish mini marshmallows into it.

Allow to set in fridge and cut in to squares!

    It would be very dangerous for me to make these. I would just eat them all myself.

  2. These look amazing. I love the mix of sweet and salty and soft and crunchy

    I keep seeing this when I go to your home page. I still need to make these when I’m going somewhere and can take them to other people (so I don’t eat them all)
