Calories: 234kcal

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1¼ cup sugar
  • ½ cup egg whites well shaken
  •  cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt in large bowl.
  • In another bowl whisk sugar, liquid egg whites, vegetable oil and, vanilla extract until creamy.
  • Add egg mixture to dry ingredients, stirring just until blended.
  • Pour mixture into a greased 8 inch square pan.
  • Bake at 350°F 20 to 25 minutes or until firm to the touch. Do not over-bake.
  • Cool and cut into squares.

Notes

TIP: If you are separating the eggs yourself, the easiest way to separate egg whites from egg yolks is to crack the egg into your hand over a small bowl. Hold the yolk in your hand while letting the white run through your fingers.
TIP: Lining the pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil will allow you to lift the entire baked brownies out of the pan for easier cutting once cooled. You can also grease the pan instead if you would prefer.
TIP: Make sure not to overbake these. You want the insides to be slightly gooey and the outsides firm.
TIP: It is essential that the brownies are completely cooled before slicing. Brownies will crumble if they are too warm when cut.

Calories451kcal

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup light corn syrup
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 5-5 1/2 cups Rice Krispies See note #1

Topping

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Measure out 5 cups of Rice krispies and place them in a large bowl. Set aside. See note #1
  • Spray a 13”x9” inch baking dish with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan over low to medium low heat, stir the karo syrup and granulated sugar until the sugar is dissolved and no longer grainy. You DO NOT want the mixture to come to a boil. (If by chance, the mixture begins to boil, immediately remove from heat and continue with the recipe).
  • Once the mixture is hot… almost boiling, but not actually boiling (you might see a few bubbles come up along the sides of the pan... as soon as this happens), remove it from heat and stir in the peanut butter. 
  • Pour the hot mixture over the rice krispies. Mix until combined. If it appears like the mixture needs more rice krispies, add more, a little at a time. Tip: work quickly because the mixture will set fast. 
  • Transfer the rice krispies to the baking dish and spread into an even layer. Tip: you can place a sheet of wax paper over the mixture and use your hands to get the mixture into a nice flat layer. Be careful as it will be hot. 

Topping

  • In a medium bowl add the butterscotch chips and chocolate chips. Heat in the microwave at half power in 20 second increments. Stir after each interval. Continue until fully melted. 
  • Pour the melted chocolate + butterscotch mixture over the scotcharoos. Using an offset spatula or rubber spatula, spread the chocolate until it covers the entire surface of the scotcharoos. 
  • Let set, and then cut into squares. Store in an airtight container for 5-7 days.

NOTES

I always start with 5 cups of Rice Krispies and then add a little more to the bowl after I've stirred in the peanut butter syrup sauce. You want to eyeball how much Rice Krispies you use. If you use too much, the Rice Krispies will be dry and not fully coated.
