The recipe for these delicious chocolate butterscotch candies dates back to the 1940s. You can drop these by the spoonful or press into a pan and cut them into bars.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 (6-ounce) package semi-sweet chocolate morsels
  • 1 (6-ounce) package butterscotch morsels
  • 2 Tablespoons peanut butter
  • 4 cups Kellogg's Rice Krispies cereal

Preparation:

Melt chocolate, butterscotch morsels, and peanut butter together in top section of a double boiler over hot but not boiling water, or in heavy saucepan over very low heat, stirring constantly until well blended. Remove from heat. Add Rice Krispies; stir until well coated.

Drop by level measuring-tablespoon onto waxed paper or buttered baking sheets. Let stand in cool place until firm. Makes about 4 dozen choco-scotch clusters, 1-1/2 inches in diameter

Note: Mixture may be pressed into buttered 9 by 9 by 2-inch square pan. Cut into squares when firm. Yields 3 dozen 1-1/2 by 1-1/2-inch choco-scotch clusters.
