Oh Henry Bars
First time I had these, I thought they were another “Rice Krispie treat”, but there are quite a few differences. I just did a Google search on Oh Henry Bars and there are a LOT of variations out there. I got this one from friend and neighbor LuAnn Scott, who is such a good cook I knew it would be good.
Ingredients:
1 Cup Sugar
1 1/2 Cups creamy peanut butter
1 1/2 Cups corn syrup
9 Cups Rice Krispies
1 – 12 oz. pkg. semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 – 12 oz. pkg. butterscotch chips
Directions:
Mix sugar, peanut butter and corn syrup in a heavy, medium saucepan, until no more sugar crystals can be heard/felt. Measure Rice Krispies into a very large bowl, like a big popcorn bowl. Pour the syrup over the Rice Krispies, and stir gently until completely coated. Pour out and press into the bottom of a greased (spray is fine) 10X14 inch pan. (I like this little bigger pan than the typical 9X13, as the bars aren’t as thick this way.) Melt the chips in a microwave – safe bowl, stir until smooth, spread over bars. Cool in the fridge a few hours to set, then bring back up to almost room temperature to cut into bars.
