RECIPE OF THE WEEK



These are one of my favorite  treats.  I usually put then in a 9x13 pan but decided to make individual ones in cupcake pans.

Special K Bars

1 cup sugar
1 cup corn syrup
1 cup peanut butter
6 cups special K cereal ( I always use Rice Krispies)
6 ounces butterscotch chips
6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips.

Mix sugar and corn syrup in a medium size kettle on stove and bring to a simmer for 1 minute(do not overcook). Remove from heat and add peanut butter and mix well.  Add Rice Krispies and stir until all rice krispies are well covered.  Fill cupcake 2/3 full. Melt chips in microwave and frost each one. It should make 2 dozen.  I place them in the freezer for about 5 minutes to set up the chocolate.   Enjoy!
