Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 350 grams butterscotch chips
- 250 grams creamy peanut butter
- 60 grams unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 300 grams mini colored marshmallows
Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the butterscotch chips, peanut butter, and unsalted butter.
Melt the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly, until completely smooth. Be careful not to overheat as the butterscotch chips can scorch easily.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Allow the mixture to cool for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. It should be warm but not hot to the touch, so it doesn’t melt the mini marshmallows.
Once cooled, gently fold in the mini colored marshmallows until evenly coated with the butterscotch mixture.
Line an 8x8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly using a spatula.
Refrigerate the pan for at least 2 hours, or until the squares are firm enough to cut.
Once chilled, remove from the pan and slice into 16 squares or your preferred portion size.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Enjoy!
