Category: Bars

1 box yellow cake mix
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
1 egg
3 cups miniature marshmallows
1 cup butterscotch chips
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
6 cups Rice Chex cereal
2 cups salted dry-roasted peanuts

Heat oven to 350. In large bowl, stir together dry cake mix, melted butter and egg. Press in ungreased 15x10x1-inch pan. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Sprinkle with marshmallows. Bake 3 to 5 minutes or until marshmallows puff.

In large microwavable bowl, microwave butterscotch and chocolate chips uncovered on Medium-High (70%) 1 minute; stir. Microwave 1 to 2 minutes longer, stirring every 30 seconds, until mixture can be stirred smooth. Stir in cereal and peanuts. Immediately spoon cereal mixture over hot marshmallow layer. Let stand about 1 hour or until cool and set. Spray your knife with cooking spray before cutting the bars.
