6 cups Kellogg's Special K cereal
1 (6 oz.) pkg. Semi-sweet chocolate morsels
1 (6 oz.) pkg. Butterscotch morsels

Place sugar & corn syrup in pan, stir to combine.
Cook over medium heat until boiling. Remove from heat.
Add peanut butter, mix well. Add Special K cereal & stir well.
Press mixture evenly & firmly into buttered 9 x 13 inch pan.

Melt chocolate & butterscotch morsels together in the
microwave & stir well. Spread evenly over cereal mixture.
Let stand to cool until firm.

My dad's mom's name was Alma. I bet she and your great-aunt were from the same generation.

I would like to take this moment to share with you the evil of last friday night family dinner...
Where my adopted father and I came up with the EVIL idea of taking my strawberry topped cream pie and converting it into a butterscotch turtle type of goodness using a chocolate grahmcracker crust instead.... mixing butterscotch with the cream base and then either doing a layer of the chocolate, nuts, carmel/butterscotch on top - or doing a swirl of that goodness through it...

Will prolly be testing out on his family in a few weeks when the chief bro in law from NY comes out. (four sets of hips other than mine to hold the weight?!) If it works out right, expect it to show up at your place one of these days.
