Special K Bars are a delicious chocolate & peanut butter cereal bar treat.

Special K Bars 

I was making these Special K Bars the other day, thinking my kids would love this chocolate, peanut buttery treat.

Scotcheroos!

My kids call these Scotcheroos!! .

The difference

Special K bars use Special K cereal as the base.  Scotcheroos use Rice Krispies cereal. 

Ingredients

Light corn syrup, sugar, smooth Peanut butter, Special K cereal, butterscotch chips,semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

Add the light corn syrup to the saucepan, heat until it starts boiling. Add peanut butter and stir until just smooth

Instructions

Turn the heat off.  Stir until smooth. Overheating the mixture can make these bars hard.

Instructions

In a large bowl, add the sugar and peanut butter mixture onto and the Special K cereal and mix it. 

Instructions

Dump the cereal, peanut butter, and sugar mixture into a well-greased or sprayed casserole dish.  I line the dish with parchment paper.

Instructions

Using a double boiler melt the chocolate chips and butterscotch chips together. Stir gently to help melt and combine.

Instructions

Pour melted chocolate and butterscotch chips on top of cereal mixture, spreading quickly so you have a nice thin even layer.
