Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine almond butter, coconut oil, and granulated erythritol.
Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and the erythritol is dissolved, about 3-4 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and salt.
Add the keto-friendly puffed rice cereal to the saucepan and mix until all the cereal is evenly coated with the almond butter mixture.
Press the mixture into the prepared baking pan, using a spatula or your hands to evenly distribute it.
In a small saucepan, melt the sugar-free chocolate chips with cream over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth.
Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the cereal mixture in the pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Refrigerate the bars for at least 1 hour or until the chocolate is set.
Once set, lift the bars from the pan using the parchment paper overhang and cut into 16 squares.
Store the Keto Scotcheroo Bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
