Tips for Perfect Haystacks
-
Don’t overmix—you want the noodles intact for maximum crunch.
-
Optional add-ins: mini chocolate chips, raisins, or crushed pretzels for a sweet-salty twist.
-
Set in fridge if it’s warm—prevents melting.
These are sweet, crunchy, and ridiculously easy, perfect for holiday trays, school snacks, or anytime you need a quick treat!
If you want, I can also give a healthier version using dark chocolate and nuts that still tastes indulgent 😏.
