Rice Krispie Scotcheroos

Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons salted butter plus extra for the pan
- 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 12 ounces marshmallows (mini or regular-sized)
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
Instructions
- Butter an 8×8" baking pan.
- In large saucepan melt butter over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until almost melted. Leave a few marshmallows not all the way melted, you will want some lumps, this allows for the gooey pulls.
- Remove the pot from heat and quickly stir in cereal until cereal is well coated.
- Use a buttered spatula or a piece of wax paper to gently press the mixture evenly into a 9×13 baking dish.
- Microwave the chocolate and butterscotch chips, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth. Spread over the bars, let them cool completely, then slice and serve.
