No Bake Peanutbutter Chocolate Bars

3 cups crushed Kellog's corn flakes
1 cup smooth peanut butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup golden corn syrup
1 cup chocolate chips
1/4 cup butterscotch chips
1 tbsp evaporated milk

Directions:

Heat peanut butter, brown sugar and corn syrup over low heat to melt. Stir in crushed cornflakes 1 cup at a time.

Line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper.

Melt chocolate chips in a double boiler and spread over the top of the square. Melt the butterscotch chips with the evaporated milk and drizzle over the chocolate.

Variation: Melt the chocolate and butterscotch chips together, spread onto the square, and top while still warm with nuts, or a mixture of pretzel sticks and peanuts for a sweet and salty treat.

Let cool in the refrigerator at least 1 hour. Remove from pan, peel off the parchment paper, and cut into bars.
