Ingredients
- 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 1½ cups chocolate chips
- 1½ cups butterscotch chips
Instructions
- Pour Rice Krispies into a large bowl and set aside.
- In a medium pot over medium-high heat, bring sugar, peanut butter, and corn syrup to a boil, stirring constantly.
- As soon as the mixture starts to boil, pour it over the cereal and mix well. Pour into a greased 9x13-inch pan and gently press down with a spatula to spread evenly into the pan.
- In a small pot, melt chocolate and butterscotch chips over low heat, stirring constantly. Pour over pressed Rice Krispies and let set for at least 30 minutes before cutting and serving.

Notes
- Recipe tips.
- Store. Make it 1-2 days ahead of time, cover it, and store it at room temperature. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
- Instead of using a saucepan on the stove, microwave the butterscotch and milk chocolate chips. Heat in 30-second intervals and stir in between each interval. Be very careful not to overheat.
- Assemble as directed. Melt a separate bowl of butterscotch chips and drizzle over the top. Use a toothpick to drag the butterscotch drizzle through the chocolate, creating a pretty pattern.
- Not all boxes of Rice Krispies are gluten-free, so double-check the box.
- To keep the rice kripie base chewy, do not overcook the peanut butter and sugar mixture.
