Butterscotch Peanut Butter Cornflake Clusters
  1. 1

    Combine white sugar, brown sugar, and corn syrup in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl and heat until the sugars dissolve, about 1 minute. Stir in peanut butter. Put the cornflakes and peanuts in a large bowl and stir in the syrup mixture, mixing well.

  2. 2

    Spray a 9x13 inch pan with cooking spray. Gently press the cornflake mixture into the pan. Melt the butterscotch chips in the same microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, for 1 to 3 minutes (depending on your microwave). Do not overheat or the butterscotch will scorch. Spread over the cornflake mixture. Let the candy cool, then cut into 1x2 inch bars.
