Reeses Haystacks Recipe 465

Steps:

• Melt the butterscotch chips in a double boiler over simmering water.
• In a medium bowl, combine the melted butterscotch and peanut butter. Add noodles and peanuts and mix well. Drop the batter by the heaped tablespoon onto waxed paper and refrigerate until cool and set, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Line cookie sheet with wax paper or use paper candy cups. In a large microwave bowl, combine chips and shortening. Microwave on high for 1 min; stir. Microwave additional 15 sec. at a time if needed; stir after each heating until mixture is smooth. Add chow mein noodles and stir to coat. Drop mixture by heaping teaspoons onto cookie sheet. Let stand until firm. Refrigerate in covered container during warm weather, if needed. Store candies in a tightly covered container.

Steps:

• Heat 2 inches of water in a pot to a simmer. Add the semisweet and milk chocolate to a bowl and place over the pot of simmering water. Allow to melt, stirring occasionally, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the noodles, almonds and pistachios to a large bowl and set aside.
• When the chocolate has melted completely, pour over the noodle and nut mixture. Mix until everything is well coated in the melted chocolate.
• Using 2 spoons, drop tablespoon mounds onto 2 parchment-lined baking sheets. Sprinkle the holiday sprinkles over the top. Allow to dry completely before storing, about 1 hour.
