🍫 Chocolate Peanut Butter Haystacks

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Base:
    • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Melt the Peanut Butter & Butterscotch:
    • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butterscotch chips and peanut butter together in 20–30 second intervals, stirring until smooth.
    • (Alternatively, melt over low heat on the stovetop.)
  3. Combine with Noodles:
    • Gently fold in chow mein noodles until fully coated.
  4. Form the Haystacks:
    • Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet.
    • Refrigerate for 10–15 minutes to set.
  5. Add the Chocolate:
    • Melt chocolate chips until smooth.
    • Drizzle or spoon chocolate over the top of each cluster.
  6. Chill & Serve:
    • Refrigerate until the chocolate is set.
    • Store in an airtight container at room temperature (or fridge for a firmer bite).

🍽️ Tips & Variations:

  • Use white chocolate instead of butterscotch for a different flavor.
  • Mix in mini marshmallows, shredded coconut, or crushed peanuts for extra texture.
  • For a salty-sweet twist, sprinkle with sea salt flakes before the chocolate sets.

Would you like me to give you a 3-ingredient version (super quick, just peanut butter, chocolate, and noodles)? That’s perfect when you want something even faster.
