Ingredients
- 4 cups Chow mein noodles
- 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1.5 cups Butterscotch chips
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 0.5 cups Salted peanuts (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it and set aside.
Step 2
In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and peanut butter.
Step 3
Microwave the mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until it is completely melted and smooth. This should take about 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 4
Once melted, add the chow mein noodles to the bowl and gently fold them into the chocolate mixture until fully coated. If using salted peanuts, add them at this stage and mix well.
Step 5
Pour the coated noodle mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly and smoothing the surface with a spatula.
Step 6
Refrigerate the pan for 1 to 2 hours, or until the mixture is firm and set.
Step 7
Once set, remove the bars from the pan using the parchment paper (if lined), and cut them into squares or rectangles to your desired size.
Step 8
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
