- 2 cups butterscotch chips
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 3 cups chow mein noodles
- 1 cup peanuts (optional)
- Wax paper for lining baking sheets
Instructions:
- Prepare Baking Sheets:
- Line baking sheets with wax paper or parchment paper.
- Melt Butterscotch Chips and Peanut Butter:
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the butterscotch chips and peanut butter together. You can do this in the microwave, stirring at 30-second intervals until smooth, or use a double boiler on the stove.
- Combine with Chow Mein Noodles:
- Once the butterscotch chips and peanut butter are melted, add the chow mein noodles to the bowl. If you’re using peanuts, add them as well.
- Mix Well:
- Gently fold the chow mein noodles and peanuts into the melted mixture until well coated.
- Form Haystacks:
- Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets, forming haystack-like clusters.
- Chill:
- Place the baking sheets in the refrigerator or freezer to allow the haystacks to set. This usually takes about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- Serve:
- Once the haystacks are set and firm, peel them off the wax paper and transfer them to a serving plate.
- Enjoy:
- Serve and enjoy your delicious No-Bake Peanut Butter Haystacks!
