Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Peanut Butter Haystacks Treats.
Step 1
Start by preparing your baking tray with a sheet of waxed paper to keep those delicious treats from sticking.
Step 2
Next, in the top part of a double boiler, combine your butterscotch chips and creamy peanut butter.
Step 3
Set it over a pot of gently simmering water, and stir frequently with a rubber spatula, making sure to scrape down the sides to prevent any scorching.
Step 4
This process should take about five minutes, and soon enough, you’ll have a smooth, melted mixture that smells heavenly.
Step 5
Once everything is melted and well combined, it’s time to add in the crunchy chow mein noodles and salted peanuts.
Step 6
Gently fold them into the butterscotch and peanut butter blend until they’re all beautifully coated.
Step 7
Now, grab a fork and start dropping spoonfuls of this delightful mixture onto your prepared baking tray, shaping them into small mounds.
Step 8
Finally, let your haystacks cool at room temperature until they set and become firm.
Step 9
The anticipation will be worth it when you get to enjoy these sweet, crunchy treats!.
