We love simple recipes, and these three-ingredient haystacks are incredibly easy and delicious!
❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE
These are the perfect holiday treat and you can make them very quickly. Only 3 ingredients and super versatile. These haystacks start with crispy chow mein noodles and they are so good with any form of sweets.
SWAPS
This is a versatile recipe and you can switch it up with dark chocolate, butterscotch, peanut butter or any other flavors you like. We love this with peanuts but you could easily add pecans or mix it up and use M&M’s too. The red and green M&M’s look great for Christmas.
⭐TIP
These will keep for up to 2 weeks in an airtight container. These make great gifts for the holiday season. You will find the chow mein noodles in the “International” isle at the grocery store.
