Chocolate Scotch-a-roos

My favorite treat as kid; a notch above the regular Rice Krispie treats.

1 cup sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup peanut butter
6 cups Rice Krispies
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup butterscotch chips

Cook sugar and syrup together in a 3 quart pan over moderate heat, until mixture bubbles. Remove from heat, and stir in the peanut butter. Mix the cereal into the sugar/peanut butter mixture. Press into a buttered 13"x9"x2" pan. Let harden. Melt over hot (not boiling) water: chocolate and butterscotch chips, stirring to blend. Spread over cereal mixture. Chill about 5 minutes, until top is firm. Cut into 2"x1" bars.
