Ingredients

  • 6 cups rice chex cereal
  • 1 cup light corn syrup
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup butterscotch chips

Instructions

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, then pour your chex cereal into a large mixing bowl and set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine corn syrup, peanut butter, and sugar. Stir over medium low heat, for 2-3 minutes or until melted and smooth, but not boiling.
  • Quickly pour the peanut butter mixture into the bowl of chex and mix to coat the cereal evenly, then scoop the mixture into clusters on your prepared baking sheet.
  • In a microwave safe bowl, combine semi-sweet chocolate chips and butterscotch chips, then microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring in-between, until melted and smooth.
  • Spoon the melted chocolate on top of each cluster, then let the chocolate set before enjoying!
