Prep Time 30 minutes mins
Total Time 2 minutes mins
Rice Crispy Base
- 6 cups crispy rice cereal
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Chocolate Topping
- 1½ cups milk chocolate, chopped
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- ½ cups butterscotch chips
Line a 9x13 inch (23x33 cm) pan with parchment paper and set aside.
Place the rice cereal in a large bowl.
In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, warm the sugar, peanut butter, corn syrup and salt until liquefied and the sugar has melted.
Immediately pour the syrup over the cereal and stir to evenly coat. Press evenly into your prepared pan.
Melt the chocolate and 1 cup (6 oz/170 g) of the butterscotch chips in the top of a double boiler over simmering water or gently in the microwave.
Spread the chocolate evenly over the top of the crispy rice.
Melt the remaining butterscotch chips, then drizzle this over the chocolate topping. Take a toothpick and drag the butterscotch through the chocolate to create a decorative pattern.
Let set for at least 2 hours until the chocolate has completely hardened before cutting into 24 portions.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
