- 6 cups (186 g) Kellogg's original Special K cereal
- 2 bags (9.7 ounces each) fun-sized Snickers, chopped into small pieces (about 4 cups chopped), divided
- 1½ cups (300 g) granulated sugar
- 1½ cups (511 g) corn syrup
- 1½ cups (387 g) peanut butter
- ¾ cup (126 g) milk chocolate chips
- ¾ cup (126 g) butterscotch chips
Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a large bowl, add cereal and half of the chopped Snickers (about 2 cups).
In a large saucepan, combine the sugar and corn syrup. Cook over medium heat until boiling, 6-7 minutes.
Stir in the peanut butter until smooth.
Remove from heat. Pour the mixture over the bowl of cereal and Snickers, folding to coat.
Using an oiled spatula, pat the cereal mixture into the lined baking dish.
Meanwhile, in a microwave-safe bowl, add the milk chocolate and butterscotch chips. Heat the chips in 20-second intervals until they have melted and the mixture is smooth with no lumps.
Pour the melted chocolate and butterscotch chips over the bars, smoothing with a knife.
Top with the remaining 2 cups of chopped Snickers.
Let the bars sit for about 10 minutes before cutting and serving.
