Butterscotch Haystacks - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 (6 oz.) pkg. butterscotch flavored morsels
1 1/2 c. salted cashew nuts
1 (5 oz.) can chow mein noodles

Preparation

Melt butterscotch bits in top of double boiler, stirring occasionally to blend.
Meanwhile, combine nuts and chow mein noodles; place in preheated low oven (200\u00b0).
Add warmed nuts and noodles to melted butterscotch and stir until all are coated. Quickly drop with a dessert spoon onto waxed paper-lined baking sheet to form little haystacks.
If nuts and noodles are warmed, butterscotch will not set until all the stacks are spooned out. Makes 48 haystacks or about 1 pound.
You can substitute 1 1/2 cups salted peanuts for the cashews, if you wish.
