Special K Bars

I got this recipe from my friend Jorie, and they are very good. They are similar to Scotcheroos (or scotchmos as bill calls them) which is a recipe of my moms. I like them both... I just love sweet snacks!

4. Spread into a cookie sheet.


5. Melt chocolate chips and butterscotch chips together (either over the stove or in the microwave).

7. Refrigerate until solid then remove and cut into squares. (do not store in freezer or they will be really hard)

  1. Elizabeth,
    This recipe inspired my rice krispie treats cut in half with peanut butter and chocolate on the inside. MMMM. I'm glad you're still doing this blog. I like it a lot. I was just with Amanda's family last weekend and they all commented that they are now all reading your blogs. The blogosphere is a lot of fun.
