Butter, creamy caramels, Corn Pops cereal and butterscotch chips all come together to form a rich and decadent no bake cereal treat.
You can use the individually wrapped Kraft Caramel Squares, or Kraft Caramel Bits. Both work the same.
Caramel Butterscotch Corn Pops Bars
Print RecipeIngredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 (11-ounce) bag Kraft Caramel bits or squares
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract (I used Rodelle Baker's Extract)
- 1/2 cup butterscotch chips
- pinch of salt
- 6 cups Corn Pops Cereal
Instructions
Line a 13x9-inch baking pan with foil and spray with baking spray. Set aside. Unwrap all of your caramels (if using the caramel squares and not the bits).
In a large pot on the stovetop over medium high heat, place the butter and the entire bag of caramel bits or unwrapped caramel squares, into the pot. Heat the mixture, stirring occasionally, until butter is incorporated into the caramels and the mixture is smooth.
Remove from the stovetop and stir in the vanilla extract, butterscotch chips and salt. Stir in the 6 cups Corn Pops cereal. Pour the mixture into your prepared pan and gently push the mixture evenly into the pan.
Let cool completely before cutting into desired squares.

November 27, 2018 at 1:24 PMYour pictures are always so good that I had to go back and check out your old blog post. Your new pictures are actually better. It is fun to see the improvement in such a short time, isn’t it? I do like the butterscotch chips added in. These sound delicious.

November 28, 2018 at 9:05 PMI remember the CORN POP commercials but I have to admit, I have NEVER had Corn Pops before in my life. But hot damn, if I could, I would devour the CRAP out of them – especially in THISSSSSSS recipe!

December 11, 2018 at 7:59 PMOmggggg how on earth did you manage to make Corn Pops even better than it already is??? Cereal bars are a serious weakness of mine, and I am always on the lookout for new ones to try – this one is definitely going at the top of my list!

October 26, 2019 at 1:33 PMIs this supposed to have 2 sticks of butter or 2 cups? It was really hard to get the Carmel and 2 cups to mix together.

October 28, 2019 at 6:09 AMHi Sara! I am so sorry….the recipe is supposed to have one cup of butter (2 sticks). I just fixed the recipe. It does take some stirring to get the caramel to incorporate into the caramel. Aghhh. So sorry for my error when writing the recipe.
