Ingredients

  • 6 cups rice cereal
  • 1 cup light corn syrup
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup butterscotch chips
  • 1 cup milk chocolate chips or semi-sweet

Instructions

  • Grease a 9x13" pan liberally with butter, set aside.
  • Measure and place the rice cereal into a large bowl and set aside.
  • Place a small saucepan over medium heat, and stir in corn syrup and sugar. Heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat and stir in the peanut butter, stir to combine.
  • Pour mixture over your rice cereal and mix to combine.
  • Press cereal mixture into the prepared pan spreading it out evenly. You want the mixture in there good but don’t press too hard because you don’t want them too packed in.
  • Mix the butterscotch chips and chocolate chips in a bowl and microwave for 30 seconds. Remove the bowl from the microwave and stir. Repeat this step (30-second intervals) until a few small lumps remain, stir until completely dissolved.
  • Spread it evenly over the top of your rice cereal.
  • Allow chocolate to set, about 2 hours.
