Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Chow mein noodles
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup Butterscotch chips
- 1 cup Salted peanuts
Instructions
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or wax paper to prepare for setting the candy.
In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and butterscotch chips.
Microwave the chips on high for 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chips are melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat.
Stir the creamy peanut butter into the melted chocolate and butterscotch mixture until fully combined and smooth.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chow mein noodles and salted peanuts.
Pour the warm chocolate, butterscotch, and peanut butter mixture over the noodles and peanuts. Gently fold the ingredients together until everything is evenly coated.
Using a spoon, drop tablespoon-sized mounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them slightly apart.
Allow the candies to set at room temperature for about 1–2 hours, or place them in the refrigerator for faster setting (about 30 minutes).
Once the candy has fully hardened, transfer it to an airtight container for storage or serve immediately.
