Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, add the white chocolate chips. Microwave in 20-30 second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chow mein noodles and salted peanuts (if using).
Pour the melted white chocolate over the noodles and peanuts, and gently stir until everything is evenly coated with chocolate.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming small mounds (haystacks).
Allow the haystacks to cool at room temperature until the chocolate hardens, or place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes to set faster.
Once hardened, serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
