Overly sweet for my taste but it was a good way to use frosted flakes. Used chunky peanut butter.

There is NO way this could have turned out like the pictures with the current ratios. I notice that everyone else revealed in their reviews also that the amount of corn flakes needed to be increased significantly (I used 3cups). I also agree with others that its a little more balanced with regular corn flakes then frosted.

Super sweet, but sooo good. I use 2.5 cups of plain cornflakes, plus a handful of raisins, and a handful of chopped pecans. Great for a party, the recipe made so much I had to give them away to stop eating them.

I followed some user suggestions and did 1 cup PB and 1 bag butterscotch chips. I poured in frosted flakes till I thought the consistency was what I wanted so I don't know how many cups that was. I had to put them in the fridge to set up but it was worth it. They are fantastic and so easy to make. A great little item to take to work.

This is so easy, and kids love them. I added half butterscotch chips and half semi-sweet chocolate, and also a 1/2tsp of vanilla. Used plain corn flakes rather than the Frosted flakes.

I rated this as a 4 instead of a 5 because of the changes I made. First, don't use Frosted Corn Flakes (unless you have a serious sweet tooth). Use regular. I made a double batch and used most of a 'regular' sized box of Corn Flakes, 2 cups peanut butter, and 2 bags of the Nestle butterscotch chips. I accidentally bought the lower sodium and lower sugar peanut butter (Jif). My husband said the peanut butter wasn't sandwich-worthy, but was perfect in this recipe. You get plenty of sweetness from the butterscotch chips. My mother-in-law used to make these as a special treat for my husband, and I'm glad that I can continue the tradition now that she's passed away. We could both eat these until we got tremendous tummy aches!

I loved the recipe, but I used Chocolate chips instead of the butterscotch. I also used 1.5 cups of corn flakes instead of frosted flakes. My kids destroyed them.

These were something new and fun for us, I like it. Next time I'll place them individually in cupcake liners because they're awfully messy and I like to share my sweets outside of the home. Thanks Colleen.

I, like others, used corn flakes (but just eye-balled the amount). Plus, rather than butterscotch chips, I used peanut butter-chocolate Hersey's morsels. My kids loved them! I thought they were pretty sweet, but that's why the kiddies enjoyed them!!! :-)

Creative, but very rich and sweet. We used semi-sweet chocolate chips instead of butterscotch. Used way more corn flakes than the recipe called for, just kept adding them in till most of the chocolate/PB mixture was used up.
