    Frosted Crispy Peanut Butter Bars


    Source of Recipe


    web

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup granulated sugar
    1 cup light corn syrup
    1 1/2 cups smooth peanut butter
    (for crunchy-style increase to 1 3/4 cups)
    2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    6 cups crisp rice cereal
    1 cup butterscotch flavored chips
    1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

    Recipe



    Butter a 13x9x2" baking dish; set aside. In a Dutch oven or large saucepan combine sugar and syrup and bring to a rolling boil. Remove from heat and add peanut butter and vanilla, mixing well. Stir in the rice cereal; mix well. Press mixture into prepared pan.* Melt the butterscotch and chocolate chips together in a glass measure on HIGH in microwave for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring mixture after the first minute (be careful not to scorch as the chips will retain their shape even though they are melted--until they are stirred); spread evenly over bars. Cool before cutting into squares. Makes 24 servings.

    *Place a sheet of plastic wrap or waxed paper over the top to help spread and press evenly without the mess.
