ingredients
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup white syrup (Karo)
- 1 cup chunky peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 6 cups Rice Krispies
- 2 cups milk chocolate chips
- 2 cups butterscotch chips
directions
- Bring the sugar and syrup to a boil and remove from heat. Add peanut butter and vanilla; stir until blended and smooth.
- Pour peanut butter mixture over Rice Krispies and mix well. The cereal will incorporate, it may take some patience! Press into a buttered 9x13 pan. I usually put a little butter on my hands and pat evenly into pan.
- Melt chips on 50 % power in your microwave in 1 minute intervals. Keep stirring to make sure the chips melt evenly and to avoid baking the chips. Once the chips are melted to a satiny texture spread over top of Rice Krispie mixture. Let cool. Cover and keep in refrigerator if weather is warm.
- These are sweet, when cutting keep the squares small!

I forgo the butterscotch chips and melt the chocolate chips with 1 cup of peanut butter. So yummy!! -
Delicious, we love all of the flavors in our house! -
These are the best rice krispie bars I've ever had! I will be making these again very soon. I did use 9 cups of rice krispie cereal intead of just 6 cups. They came out perfect for my taste. Thanks! -
I remember this recipe from the back of the Rice Krispies box. My grandmother used to make these all the time. The chocolate-butterscotch combination is scrumptious. These are always popular at potlucks.
