Steps:
- Grease a large bowl with butter and place the Special K in the bowl.
- Grease a 9x13 or 8x11 baking dish. The 9x13 will make thinner bars, the 8x11 bars will be thicker (as pictured).
- Place sugar and corn syrup in a saucepan over medium heat. Heat the mixture stirring occasionally, until the edges start to bubble. Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately stir in the peanut butter.
- Working quickly (before the mixture cools), pour the peanut butter mixture over the Special K and stir until combined. Scoop into the prepared baking dish and press into an even layer. Proceed with the frosting.
- Place chocolate chips and butterscotch chips in the bowl of a double boiler. Cook, stirring frequently, until melted and smooth. Note: make sure the boiling water is not touching the bottom of your bowl, only the steam.
- Immediately pour the frosting over the bars and smooth into an even layer. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Allow several hours for the frosting to firm up, then cut and serve.

Steps:
- 1. Place the sugar, syrup and butter in a heavy bottom pan. Bring to a boil over medium high heat. Boil one minute. Remove from heat.
- 2. Add peanut butter stir until melted and well blended.
- 3. Add the cereal and stir until cereal is well coated. ( If you want smaller pieces of corn flakes just crush them a bit with your hands before adding to the peanut butter mix). I think corn flakes taste better than Special K cereal. Use what you have on hand, I have used rice krispies and that works well too.
- 4. Place in a buttered 9x13 pan.
- 5. Melt the chocolate and butterscotch chips in the microwave or in a double boiler. Watch carefully if using the microwave, start with a minute and stop to stir every 15 minutes until chips are melted and smooth when you stir them. Spread over the bars. Place in fridge to set the chocolate. Cut and enjoy.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the doneness of the butterscotch by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If it forms a firm ball, it is done.
- Be careful not to overcook the butterscotch, or it will become hard and brittle.
- Let the butterscotch cool completely before cutting it into bars.
- Store the butterscotch bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
