Husband Pleasers Part 2

Ok, I jumped the gun a little bit on my husband pleasers (Scotcharoos) post.  I remade the recipe again this morning and used mini marshmallows in the Special K mixure.  Another winning result! Here's what I did:

Make the Scotcharoos exactly as stated before, but after you add the peanut butter to the sugar mixture, stir in about 3 cups of mini marshmallows off the heat (or you can take big ones and break them up). 
Stir the marshmallows until incorporated- they shouldn't melt completely, but they'll get really soft
Spread mixture in pan
Omit the caramel (unless you like extremely sweet things, but I didn't add it because I was afraid it would be too overpowering)
Put chocolate/butterscotch chips on as usual and sprinkle with sea salt

The Special K mixture becomes like a Special K marshmallowy-crispy treat and they are wonderful!  Try the famous Scotcharoos all 3 ways (traditional, caramel with sea salt, and marshmallow with sea salt) and decide which one you like best!
