Another easy dessert to put on the Christmas Tray or to enjoy anytime! Layers of butterscotch, rice cereal and almond bark. This Crunchy Butterscotch Candy is simple and tasty, such a treat for sure!
Simplicity at it's finest. Got to love easy and simple desserts that are only a few ingredients. Crunchy Butterscotch Candy is a recipe all ages can make and will fill the cookie or candy tray quite easily.
Do you have eager bakers at your house? We certainly do. This candy recipe will be a cinch for them to whip together. The best part? You really can't mess it up. If you don't want butterscotch, use peanut butter chips on the bottom. I've seen mint chips at the store, that can be used as well. Candy is a fun thing (and tasty!) to make any time like this Chocolate Caramel Candy, Crock Pot Easter Candy and 3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cup Candy.
Ingredients
- butterscotch chips
- vanilla almond bark
- Rice Krispies
The ingredient list is small and it is certainly easy to put together. Such a delightful candy recipe!
The layers
The layers are what makes this dessert work. (Well, the wax paper is pretty important too. Wouldn't want everything to stick!) There will be some patience required as the layers will need to be chilled for a short time before adding the next layer.
The butterscotch is the bottom layer and is just the butterscotch chips melted. The crunch comes with the rice cereal in the almond bark layer.
After the candy has hardened
The butterscotch candy can be broken into pieces by using your hand. The pieces will break apart easily.
Alternatives
- chocolate and butterscotch
- mint chocolate and almond bark
- chopped peanuts with the almond bark layer
- peanut butter chips instead of butterscotch
Storage
To store this candy, it needs to be placed in an airtight container or in storage bags. It can be kept in the refrigerator or on the counter.
Enjoy this simple and easy candy recipe!
