Love the combo of the butterscotch, peanut butter and chocolate together then I promise you’ll love these scotcheroo muddy buddies!
Have you ever had a scotcheroo? They’re basically rice krispy treats made with peanut butter and corn syrup and topped with a butterscotch and chocolate ganache. And they are SO good.
I saw the idea for scotcheroo muddy buddies on pinterest from Something Swanky and knew I had to try them out a.s.a.p. Instead of making them with a corn syrup and peanut butter base and topping them with chocolate and butterscotch chips like my scotcheroo bars, I just combined the three main flavors into the coating for the muddy buddies.
So basically instead of traditional muddy buddies with chocolate and peanut butter, I added butterscotch chips into the base too. And then coated it all in powdered sugar like normal, and yum!
I just love the combo of the butterscotch, peanut butter and chocolate together and if you do too then I promise you’ll love these muddy buddies!

This was good. I was looking for a different puppy chow recipe, and this is just slightly different enough to mix it up for me.
