1 cup sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup peanut butter
6 cups oven-toasted rice cereal
One 6-ounce pkg (1 cup) Nestle
Semi-Sweet Real Chocolate Morsels
One 6-ounce pkg. (1 cup) Nestle
Butterscotch Morsels
In large saucepan, combine sugar and corn syrup; bring just to a boil over moderate heat. Remove from heat; stir in peanut butter. Mix in over-toasted rice cereal. Press into buttered 13" x 9" x 2" pan. Melt over hot (not boiling) water Nestle Semi-Sweet Real Chocolate Morsels and Nestle Butterscotch Morsels. Spread over cereal mixture. Chill in refrigerator until firm (about 15 minutes). Cut into 2" x 1" bars. Makes 48 2" x 1" bars.
There were none left in the pan when we brought it home. They were really good. I had to look to see what oven-toasted rice cereal was. I used Chex. It said it right on the front, and I had a box of it. I think the secret to making these is not boiling the sugar mixture very long.
Ha. 48 2''x1'' bars. In our family these serve 4, and we cut them into about 12 bars.
ReplyDeleteDid making it out of Chex instead of rice krispies change the finish product? I've never thought to use Chex, but I imagine the end product is pretty much the same.
ReplyDeleteIt wasn't as dense since the cereal is bigger. I also thought there was a better cereal to gooey ratio.
