Glorified Rice Krispy Treats

You have probably had these. I've had them lots of different places. But they are one of my absolute favorite desserts, so how could I not share them with you? So easy, so addicting!

Glorified Rice Krispy Treats
1 cup sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup crunchy peanut butter (I suppose you could use creamy instead)
1/2 bag (about 1 cup) butterscotch chips (essential)
1/2 bag semi sweet chocolate chips
4-6 cups Rice Krispies

In a medium sauce pan bring  sugar and corn syrup to a boil. Boil for one minute, no more! Remove from heat and add peanut butter. Pour over Rice Krispies and stir until all the cereal is coated. Pour into a greased 9x13 pan. In another sauce pan melt together both kinds of chips. Stir constantly so they don't burn! (I used a double boiler to be extra careful) Pour over Rice Krispy mixture and spread until even. Let cool and harden. Cut into squares and devour!
 Spread Rice Krispy mixture in pan
Melt the chips, spread, cool, and devour! 
I must have gotten really wrapped up in that last step because I don't have any pictures of the final product...

Easy and addicting is right! You can make them in 10 minutes and eat the whole pan in a day!!

These are so good. I'm so glad you posted this recipe. For some reason, I don't have it written anywhere so I always have to call Kelsie. Now I know where to find a good recipe for them! (Now, if only I could find butterscotch chips in Sweden!)
