day 4 Holiday recipes: PB and Butterscotch deluxe krispie treats

This is a recipe my grandmother made EVERY CHRISTMAS.  These were the treats that got devoured first. they are so delicious and addicting.. Not your traditional Krispie treats, as there is no butter or marshmellows. Trust me when I say there will be no leftovers and people will be licking the pan trying to get the last few crumbs.


CHOCOLATE/PEANUT BUTTER and BUTTERSCOTCH KRISPIE TREATS

1 cup corn Syrup
1 cup white sugar
1 cup creamy peanut Butter

6 cups rice Krispies


In a saucepan over medium high heat, combine the corn syrup, sugar and peanut butter. Stir until melted and smooth.  Heat until boiling, , let boil for 2 minutes only, stirring constantly,  then remove from heat and pour over  the rice krispie cereal. Mix well until all the cereal has been coated evenly.
Press into a greased 9x13 baking dish.

On top of this sprinkle chocolate chips and butterscotch chips, place in oven set at about 250 or so.
When these chips melt enough to spread, remove from oven and spread the chocolate/butterscotch over the top It will all swirl together, creating a most delicious topping.
Cool completely and then cut into squares.
prepare to not be able to resist these.

Today is baking Day

Yes, today is Saturday. We went to a Breakfast in Bethlehem this morning at church. They had about 5 pounds of butter left over from their pancake breakfast, and were just going to throw it out.

We wrapped it up, brought it home and I am proceeding to spend the day making Snickerdoodles, brownies, Krispie treats and peppermint chocolate chip cookies.

totally not helping the diet, I know.
