- 2 10 oz. bags mini marshmallows
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 3/4 cup peanut butter
- 10 cups Cheerios cereal
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
Instructions
- Butter a 9x13 baking dish and set aside.

- Remove from heat, and stir in the Cheerios cereal.
- Press the Cheerios mixture into the baking dish evenly.
