These are popular at Christmas in our house.
For an 8 x 8 pan:
¼ cup butter
½ cup peanut butter
1 cup butterscotch chips
250 g bag colored mini marshmallows
Melt butter and peanut butter over LOW heat, stir in butterscotch chips and melt stirring constantly.
Cool mixture for about 10 minutes if mixture is too hot. I have great pots with a thick bottom so I don’t need to let the mixture cool, but if you don’t the mixture may be hotter.
Note: Do not add marshmallows if the mixture is too warm as all will go to the bottom and the marshmallows will float on top……a little tip.
Add marshmallows and stir until they are well coated. Press into an 8×8 pan lined with parchment. Refrigerate and cut into squares.
Note: I always double the recipe and put it in a 9×13 pan, but reduce the marshmallows to a bag and a half because that’s the way we like them. So a 9 x 13 pan I used:
1/2 cup butter
1 cup peanut butter
2 cups butterscotch chips
375 grams colored mini marshmallows
