Scotcharoos (Chocolate Rice Krispies Cookies)

This is a favorite family recipe and watch out because they disappear fast. My family just gobbles these up. I asked Kerry's mom, Theone Miles, for his favorite cookie recipe and she sent me this one. One advantage to this recipe is that it is fast and easy to make.

1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup white corn syrup

Bring these ingredients to a boil in a heavy pan. Then remove and add:

1 cup of peanut butter

Stir until the peanut butter is melted. Pour over:

6 cups of Rice Krispies cereal
Add 1 cup of chopped pecans (if desired)

Spread mixture ina 9 x 13 pan and level. In a double boiler, melt 1 cup of chocolate chips with 1 cup of butterscotch chips. Spread over first mixture. Put in freezer a few minutes until chocolate is set. Cut into bars.
