Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 oz butterscotch chips
1 c peanut butter
8 c crispy rice cereal
12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
4 Tbsp butter
1 c powdered sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Melt butterscotch chips and peanut butter in sauce pan over low heat. Be careful not to scorch.
  • 2. Put rice cereal in a large bowl.
  • 3. Scoop melted butterscotch mixture onto cereal and stir to combine. Try not to break the cereal up too much.
  • 4. Press half of the cereal mixture into a lightly buttered 9x13 glass pan. And chill.
  • 5. Melt Chocolate chips. butter and powdered sugar over low heat, again being careful of scorching. I added a little bit of oil because mine seemed to be getting really dry.
  • 6. Put the chocolate mixture on top of the chilled cereal in pan. Spread as well as you can. A butter knife dipped in hot water helps with the spreading.
  • 7. Put the rest of the cereal on top of the chocolate and press down. I found a wet spatula worked great!
  • 8. Chill for 1 1/2 hours and cut. You can sample now but they will be really crumbly!
  • 9. Chill at least 4 hours for a good set on the bars...enjoy! (try to eat only one!)
