Scotcheroos

These bars are by far one of my favorite treats. I could eat them everyday. There's nothing like opening up your lunch box and finding something mom made, or getting a plate from a neighbor during the holidays. Kids young and old will gobble these up any time of year.

Ingredients:
-1 cup granulated sugar
-1 cup light corn syrup
-1 cup chunky peanut butter (you can also use smooth)
-1 cup chocolate chips
-1 cup butterscotch chips (NOTE: Nestlé butterscotch chips are NOT GF. Use Hersey's)
-6 cups GF rice cereal or GF puffed rice

Directions:
Grease 13x9-ince pan and set aside. Place sugar and corn syrup into a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until sugar has dissolved and mixture is beginning to boil. Remove from heat. Stir in peanut butter until it has melted and combined. Add in the cereal an stir until evenly coated. Press mixture into pan. Melt the chocolate and butterscotch chips together using a double boiler or the microwave. Spread evenly over the cereal mixture. Place in the fridge to set.
