Chex Scotcharoos

I admit… we like treats.

We made a dessert of some sort at least a few times a week. No worries – it isn’t always for us. We are making them for friends or neighbors or for guests who we invited over for dinner (can’t have guests without dessert, right?!)

And I hope you know we only share on here the recipes we absolutely loved, like this next one – Chex Scotcharoos (what’s the point in sharing a recipe we didn’t like ourselves??)!! If I’m going to be darn right honest, these babies are just delicious and are so simple to make. They have chocolate and butterscotch chips and Chex (one of my favorite cereals) and are so finger-lickin’ good.

If you ever want to try a quick and delicious treat, I think these guys should at least be considered. They are a cookie/Chex version of Scotcharoos, and who in the world doesn’t like Scotcharoos?! 😉

Here’s the recipe for these delicious treats:
