I found this recipe years ago on either the back of a store brand package of butterscotch chips or chow-mien noodles. These are so easy to make and are very tasty as well!

Butterscotch (or Chocolate) Hay Stacks Recipe #1

To make these hay stacks, you will need the following ingredients:

2/3 cup peanut butter

1 (12 oz.) pkg. butterscotch chips

1 (3 oz.) can chow mein noodles

*1 cup chopped walnuts or peanuts (optional)

*Instead of chopped nuts, you can use crunchy peanut butter and omit the nuts.

Melt the peanut butter and butterscotch chips. Mix in the noodles and nuts until coated well. Drop by teaspoon onto the wax paper. Put into the refrigerator until set.

For variety, our family also likes chocolate haystacks. Just substitute chocolate chips for butterscotch chips.

You could also wait until the butterscotch haystacks harden and then dip half into melted chocolate for a colorful look.

Haystacks Recipe #2

2 cups (12 oz.) semisweet chocolate chips

2 cups (12 oz.) butterscotch chips (or peanut butter chips)

1/2 tsp. vanilla

3 cups chow mein noodles

Melt the chips. Mix in noodles and nuts until coated well. Drop by teaspoon onto wax paper. Put into refrigerator until set.
