Ingredients

1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

1 cup butterscotch chips

1 cup creamy peanut butter

3 cups chow mein noodles

1 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

1. Melt the chocolate chips and butterscotch chips together using a microwave in short intervals, stirring until smooth.

2. Stir in the peanut butter until the mixture becomes glossy and fully combined.

3. Mix in the vanilla extract for added flavor depth.

4. Fold in the chow mein noodles gently until evenly coated.

5. Drop spoonfuls onto parchment lined baking sheets to form clusters.

6. Let the haystacks set at room temperature or refrigerate until firm.

Notes

Chocolate melts best when heated slowly and stirred often to prevent burning.

Use creamy peanut butter for smoother coating and better texture.

Let haystacks fully set before storing to keep their shape intact.

Chill faster in the refrigerator if your kitchen is warm.

Use dark chocolate instead of semi sweet for a richer flavor.

Add sprinkles or sea salt on top before setting for extra flair.
