Butterscotch Haystacks.
Four ingredients is all you need to create something wonderful. The butterscotch and peanut butter mixture is smooth and creamy, a perfect contrast to the crunchy noodles and peanuts underneath.
If you can find the Chinese noodles, that is. Sometimes called Chow Mein Noodles, they resemble noodles only in shape, not in taste or texture. In Michigan, they were always simple to find, and we'd pick them up at our local grocery store.
Not in Brooklyn. Last year I went in eight different shops searching for the noodles and considered ordering them from Amazon.com until I finally found a grocery store that stocked them. I think the hunting was worth it. These haystacks come together in a matter of minutes and are pretty addictive.
