Makes12 bars
Preparation Time10 min
Cooking Vessel Size9 x 12 baking pan
Ingredients
- 5 cup Special K Cereal
- 2 cup mini-marshmallows
- 2 cup Pecans, chopped
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
-
Over medium heat, mix together the marshmallows, butter and brown sugar and boil no longer than three minutes. (Any longer will make your bars too crunchy. I like to heat it just until the marshmallows dissolve). Place the cereal and nuts in a large bowl. Pour the boiled mixture over the cereal and stir until blended. Place in a buttered 9x13 baking dish and press down to even out.

For the frosting: Melt together at 30 second increments in the microwave until all the lumps are gone. With a fork, dip into the mixture and drizzle the frosting over the cereal bars as much as you'd like. Don't forget to lick the bowl :) Cut the bars into desired sizes. Then eat up!
