Scotcheroos

6 1/2 cups Special K cereal, Rice Krispies, or Corn Flakes
1 cup sugar
1 cup white karo syrup
1 1/3 cups crunchy peanut butter
1 1/2 cups butterscotch chips
3/4 cup chocolate chips

Bring sugar and syrup to a boil. Remove from heat immediately and stir in peanut butter. Mix in cereal and spread in greased jelly roll pan. Melt chips together and pour over and cool.

**Tips:
-If you "cook" the sugar, syrup, and peanut butter, they will be so hard on your teeth, you won't be able to bite it. (This is from experience.) Just bring to a boil, remove from heat and stir in the peanut butter until it melts.
-You can also make these in a 9X13 pan for thicker bars. I would probably decrease the butterscotch and chocolate chips amounts, if you do so.
