Place the crispy rice cereal in a large mixing bowl and set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the honey and granulated sugar. Stir continuously until the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to boil.
Remove the saucepan from heat and quickly stir in the peanut butter until smooth.
Add the vanilla extract to the peanut butter mixture and stir well.
Pour the peanut butter mixture over the crispy rice cereal and gently fold to coat the cereal evenly.
Gently press the mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish using a spatula or your hands lined with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and butterscotch chips. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until completely melted and smooth.
Pour the chocolate mixture over the pressed cereal mixture, spreading evenly with a spatula.
Allow the bars to set at room temperature for at least an hour or refrigerate for 30 minutes until the chocolate topping is firm.
Once set, cut the bars into squares and serve. Enjoy your soy-free scotcheroos!
