Peanut Butter Butterscotch Haystacks (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - ½ cup creamy peanut butter

02 - 1 cup butterscotch chips

03 - ½ cup salted peanuts (optional)

04 - 5 ounces chow mein noodles (about 2½ cups)

05 - 1 tablespoon Maldon salt for topping (optional)

# Instructions:

01 - Combine the peanut butter and butterscotch chips in a large bowl. Microwave at HALF power (50%) for about 4 minutes, stopping and stirring after each minute.

02 - When the mixture is smooth and liquid, add the chow mein noodles and the peanuts. Stir to coat completely. Use a spoon to drop about a tablespoon of the noodle mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Use the tips of your fingers to gently shape them into 'haystacks.'

03 - If desired, sprinkle the top of each haystack with Maldon salt. Allow the cookies to sit at room temperature for at least 2 hours, until cooled completely and hardened.
