These are my husband’s absolute favorite treat. This was what he requested as his birthday cake this past year! He requests these all the time and eats more than half the cookie sheet in one sitting!
After melting the sugar, syrup and peanut butter together, remove from heat. You’ll add the Rice Krispies in the pot after that. Now, I know the recipe says 6 cups. Sometimes it requires more, sometimes it requires less. Honestly, what I do is I just dump the cereal as I mix until it’s “treat” consistency. You know, it’s not goopy but also not too solid.
From there, spread it on a greased cookie sheet. I generally spread it with my mixing spoon. In the mean time, melt the chocolate and butterscotch chips and mix together. Spread the chocolatey goodness all over the treats and refrigerate after that! Enjoy!
