Special K Bars

Made a family favorite - an old stand-by that is good to the last crumb.  I like a lot of chocolate "frosting" on my Special K Bars!

1 c. sugar

1 c. corn syrup

1 1/2 c. peanut butter

5 c. Special K cereal

1 c. chocolate chips

1 c. butterscotch chips

Combine sugar and corn syrup in a saucepan, bring to a boil.  Add peanut butter and cereal.  Press in a 9"x13" pan.  Melt and combine both chips and spread over bars.  Chill.

Caramel Krispie Bars

Preparing for visiting friends and relatives last week, I made a couple different bars.  This one was a special request from my daughter.  It was a favorite - and disappeared quickly!

Caramel Krispie Bars

10 Tablespoons butter

10 cups mini marshmallows

10 cups Rice Krispies

14 ounce bag of caramels

14 ounce can of sweetened condensed milk


Melt 5 Tablespoons margarine and 5 cups marshmallows.  Stir in 5 cups Rice Krispies.  Pat in buttered 9 x 13 inch pan.  Melt caramels and sweetened condensed milk together.  Pour over Rice Krispies layer in pan.  Cool completely.  Prepare another Rice Krispie mixture like the first.  Put on top of caramel layer.  Cool and cut into bars.
