Instructions
 

  • Line an 8” x 8” pan with parchment paper and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Heat granulated sugar and corn syrup in a large, heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring continually, until mixture comes to a rolling boil.
  • Stir in peanut butter and remove from heat. Set aside.
  • Add Rice Krispies to a large bowl. Pour peanut butter mixture over the cereal and mix to combine.
  • Spread the Rice Krispies mixture evenly in the prepared baking pan. Set aside.
  • In the microwave, melt the chocolate and butterscotch chips in a large glass bowl (or two separate bowls, if preferred). Heat for 1 minute and then stir. Then, heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chips are completely melted.
  • Pour chocolate-butterscotch mixture over the cereal mixture in the baking pan and spread out evenly. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until chocolate hardens.
  • Remove from refrigerator and slice into 9 sections before serving. Enjoy!

Notes
