Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Squares

I was given this recipe by my friend Josée after she brought some in to work - they are a fun variation on regular Rice Krispie Squares.

Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Squares

1 cup sugar
1 cup corn syrup
1 cup peanut butter
5 cups Rice Krispies Cereal
½ package semi-sweet chocolate chips
½ package butterscotch chips

Combine sugar and corn syrup in pot at medium heat until sugar is melted. Remove pot from stove and add peanut butter. Mix well. Add to cereal in another bowl. Pour mixture into a greased pan. Melt chocolate and butterscotch chips together; pour on top of cereal mixture. Can refrigerate to hasten the solidification process.
