Ingredients
- 12 ounces, weight Thick Cut Bacon
- 1 cup Brown Sugar
- 1 cup Light Karo Syrup
- 1 cup Crunchy Peanut Butter
- 6 cups Rice Krispies
- 1 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
- 1 cup Butterscotch Chips
- 1 pinch Sea Salt For Sprinkling
Preparation
Grease a 9×12-inch cake pan. Preheat the oven to 400 F.
Line two large rimmed baking sheets with foil. Spread the bacon out between the foil-lined pans. Bake for 20 minutes or until the bacon is baked to your liking. Remove from oven. Chop bacon into pieces and set aside.
In a large saucepan, add the brown sugar and Karo syrup. Stir over medium-high heat until the mixture begins to boil. Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the peanut butter until it melts. Stir in the bacon pieces and Rice Krispies.
Press mixture into the prepared pan. Set aside.
In a saucepan (it can be the same one as before), add the chocolate and butterscotch chips. Stir on low-medium until melted. This can also be done in the microwave.
Pour the melted chocolate/butterscotch over the Rice Krispies. Add sprinkles of sea salt. Cover and set aside until the chocolate has set. Cut into bars. Serve. Enjoy.
