Harvest time!
The First of August is also known as Lammas or Loaf Mass, to celebrate the harvest.
Haystacks
1/2 cup chips – butterscotch or peanut butter have the most haystack look – white white chocolate or regular ole chocolate chips are fine, too
1/4 cup peanut butter (creamy)
1 cup chow mein noodles
- Melt the chips.
- Mix in the peanut butter
- Mix in the chow mein noodles – a silicone spatula is great here
- Drop by stack looking spoonfuls into stacks on wax paper.
- Let cool and then eat (bonus points for pretending to be a cow….)
- Store in the fridge.
- from assorted backs of bags and boxes, trial and error, and mostly indecipherable scribbles on little bits of paper
