Chocolate Scotcheroos Rice Krispy Bars

My friend at work made these for my birthday, and we can't stop making them and eating them.  They go to every family game night, and every celebration we are invited to! They are so so so yummy. If you make these, you will become instantly popular and well liked!   You can find a picture of these bars  here
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup sugar
1 cup peanut butter
1 pkg chocolate chips (either semi-sweet or milk chocolate)
1 pkg butterscotch chips
1 tsp vanilla
7 cups Rice Krispie Cereal (My friend uses the plain Special K Flakes instead of Rice Krispy)

Over stovetop cook over medium heat stirring constantly the corn syrup and sugar until sugar dissolves and mixture begins to boil.  Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter.  Add vanilla   Mix well.  Pour over Rice Krispie cereal (or Special K cereal).  Stir until well coated.  Pour into greased 9 x 13 pan (or spray with Pam instead of greasing)

In microwave safe bowl, melt the butterscotch and chocolate chips together (I put in microwave for 2 min, take out to stir, put back in for 2 min, take out stir, then it is either ready or you need 1 more min)  Spread over Rice Krispies in pan.  Put in refrigerator to chill so the icing will harden up, then cut into squares and serve.

For the nourishing of your soul today:

Proverbs 16:9 "A man's heart deviseth his way; but the Lord directeth his steps,
meaning a man's heart plans his course but the Lord directs his Steps
We must always remember that the Lord is with us every step of the way, and he will guide us along.  Sometimes we take all the credit for where we are and what we are doing , but really it was the Lord who directed us to live where we live, and work where work.  He is a BIG part in our everyday LIFE!
