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

1. Melt the chips.
2. Mix in the peanut butter
3. Mix in the chow mein noodles – a silicone spatula is great here
4. Drop by stack looking spoonfuls into stacks on wax paper.
5. Let cool and then eat (bonus points for pretending to be a cow….)
6. Store in the fridge.
