KRISPIE SCOTCHEROOS

Steps:

• Measure out 6 cups of Rice Krispies into large bowl.
• Measure out 1 1/2 cups of peanut butter, add to bowl with cereal.
• Heat 1 cup Karo syrup and 1 cup sugar to a boil in a 2-quart sauce pan, stirring constantly. Remove and pour on peanut butter (this will melt PB and make stirring easier).
• Stir until cereal is covered, spread mixture into 9x13 pan, set aside.
• Melt chocolate and butterscotch chips in microwave (1 minute, stir, repeat) or over medium heat on stove (stir constantly). Spread on top of cereal mixture.
• Refrigerate for 1 hour. Bars will cut best when they've warmed to room tempreature.

SCOTCHEROOS

Steps:

• Line a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on the two long sides. Spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• Combine the corn syrup with the sugar in a large pot. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved, 3 to 5 minutes. (It's better to err on the side of lower heat here because if the mixture boils for too long, the bars will be incredibly hard to cut!)
• Remove the pot from the heat and add the peanut butter. Stir until combined. Add the cereal and stir until coated. Pour into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly with a spatula.
• Combine the chocolate and butterscotch chips in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring each time, until totally melted (about 2 minutes total). Pour over the cereal mixture, spread evenly and let sit at room temperature until the chocolate-butterscotch topping has firmed, about 2 hours (or refrigerate until chilled, about 2 hours).
• Use the parchment overhang to help lift the mixture out of the pan. Cut into 15 to 20 bars. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Or freeze for up to 1 month.
