Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Butterscotch chips
- 125 grams Peanut butter (smooth)
- 60 grams Unsalted butter
- 200 grams Mini colorful marshmallows
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang to make removal easier later.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the butterscotch chips, peanut butter, and butter over low heat.
Stir continuously until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat, as butterscotch can scorch easily.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Let the mixture cool slightly for about 3-5 minutes. It should be warm, not hot, to avoid melting the marshmallows.
Fold in the mini colorful marshmallows until evenly coated with the butterscotch mixture.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly using a spatula.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the squares are fully set.
Once set, lift the slab out using the parchment paper overhang and cut into 16 squares.
Store the Confetti Squares in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
