It’s finally fall, y’all! And this Three-Ingredient Haystacks recipe screams for Halloween! It’s the perfect fast, sweet treat to mix up for your fall hayrides and Halloween parties.
This recipe was unique to me because it called for shoestring potato sticks rather than Chow Mein noodles. I have always used Chow Mein noodles because they can absorb any flavor they are coated in. So, seeing this recipe called for shoestring potatoes, I knew it was a must-try, and it did not disappoint. The shoestring potato sticks are where it’s at! It gives that sweet and salty flavor to the perfect bite.
Have you ever used Reese’s peanut butter chips? I had to do a test batch of Haystacks with melted peanut butter chips, and they were to die for. If you love peanut butter chips, do the whole recipe with them. They turned out even better than the butterscotch chips. Y’all, it’s dangerous!
Easy Peasy Pleasy Tips
- When you are short on time and you need a quick, easy recipe, turn to the recipe index of the cookbook. Look for the clock symbol beside the recipe title. This means it’s fast and easy.
- Trust the process when mixing. It may seem like it’s not going to combine, but just keep mixing. It gets to the perfect formable haystack.
- If you want to make elite haystacks, use Reese’s peanut butter chips in place of butterscotch chips! They will be gone in minutes!
