SCOTCHEROOS - MY MOTHER-IN-LAW'S RECIPE!

Steps:

• In a heavy sauce pan cook sugar, syrup and butter over a medium heat until sugar is dissolved.
• Remove from heat and add peanut butter. In a large bowl mix into the rice krispies until krispies are coated and press firmly into a buttered 9 x 12 inch pan.

MOTHER-IN- LAW'S CHEESECAKE COOKIES

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix crust ingredients together. Reserve 1 cup for topping. Press remaining mixture in bottom of 8" square pan. Bake 15 minutes. Remove from oven and top with cheesecake mixture.
• 2. In medium bowl, blend all the cheesecake ingredients together, mixing well (I use my KA hand mixer). Spoon over baked crust, then sprinkle with reserved crust mixture. Bake 15 minutes longer.
• 3. I have doubled this recipe and baked in a 13"x9"x2" pan without any problem. Crust baking time increases by about 5 minutes, with filling, it's about 10 minutes more in my elec oven...you may have to adjust time in your own oven.
