Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, mix sugar and Karo syrup; microwave on high for 3-4 minutes, or until sugar is completely dissolved. Remove after sugar is dissolved. Do not boil. This is important. Bars will be hard as concrete if mixture continues to boil.
  • Remove bowl from microwave; add crunchy peanut butter to the sugar mixture and stir until smooth. Stir in the Special K cereal and mix well.
  • Pat the mixture firmly into a lightly buttered 13X9 inch pan. Using a lightly buttered or greased piece of waxed paper works great for patting down the mixture.(To make thicker bars -- use a 9x9 pan).
  • In a medium bowl, combine the chocolate and butterscotch chips and microwave for about 3-4 minutes until melted; stirring once or twice during melting.
  • Spread over top of cereal mixture. Refrigerate just long enough to set the chips.
  • Remove, and cut into bars.

1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup Karo syrup
1 (12 ounce) jar crunchy peanut butter
6 cups Special K cereal
1 (6 ounce) package semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 (12 ounce) package butterscotch chips

This is a "tweeked" Special K bar recipe. I made a few changes to the original recipe I was given, and I think it improved it!

Steps:

  • 1. Bring Karo syrup and sugar to a rolling boil. Remove from heat and add the peanut butter until it's melted and smooth.
  • 2. Remove from heat and add the peanut butter until it's melted and smooth.
  • 3. Stir in Rice Krispies, and mix well. (using rice krispies instead of Special K cereal makes the bars softer & chewier)
  • 4. Press mixture into a butter greased pan.
  • 5. Melt together chocolate chips and peanut butter chips*, stir until smooth.
  • 6. Spread over the top of the cereal mixture and let cool.
  • 7. *butterscotch chips can be used in place of peanut butter chips for a variation

1 c light karo syrup
1 c sugar
1 1/3 c creamy peanut butter
6 c rice krispies
1+ c chocolate chips
1+ c peanut butter chips*

Steps:

  • 1. Place the sugar, syrup and butter in a heavy bottom pan. Bring to a boil over medium high heat. Boil one minute. Remove from heat.
  • 2. Add peanut butter stir until melted and well blended.
  • 3. Add the cereal and stir until cereal is well coated. ( If you want smaller pieces of corn flakes just crush them a bit with your hands before adding to the peanut butter mix). I think corn flakes taste better than Special K cereal. Use what you have on hand, I have used rice krispies and that works well too.
  • 4. Place in a buttered 9x13 pan.
  • 5. Melt the chocolate and butterscotch chips in the microwave or in a double boiler. Watch carefully if using the microwave, start with a minute and stop to stir every 15 minutes until chips are melted and smooth when you stir them. Spread over the bars. Place in fridge to set the chocolate. Cut and enjoy.

1 c sugar
1 c white corn syrup
1/2 stick butter
1 1/2 c peanut butter
6 c corn flakes, crunch with your hands to make a bit smaller
TOPPING
1 c chocolate chips
1 c butterscotch chips

SPECIAL K BARS

This recipe started out as a way to avoid eating my school's special k bars. I didn't like the way they tasted. With this recipe you can add as much or as little chocolate as you like. This recipes has a perfect amount of chocolate and peanut buttery-ness to make it almost seem to melt in your mouth.
