HAYSTACKS



Haystacks image

I have made these cookies for my family for about 30 years now. My son (who is now 36 years old) gets so excited when I make these; he always enjoys them with a tall glass of milk. I find that I have to be careful when melting the butterscotch because it seems to scorch easily, so take care - this is an essential ingredient! Also, these are best enjoyed in the winter because they seem to melt and not taste as great in the warmer weather.

"HEALTHY" HAYSTACKS



My son is currently in Americorps and works at Harvesters, Kansas City's only food bank. In addition to feeding hungry people Harvesters also has outreach programs which teach families how to get the most nutritional value for the least cost. My son brought home some of these "Healthy Haystacks" one day along with the recipe....

Categories     Other Desserts

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 c peanut butter (my family loves crunchy best)
1/2 c butterscotch chips
2 c original - fiber one - cereal
1/2 c dry roasted peanuts or other nuts of your choice (we like them with toasted almond pieces)
1/2 c dried cranberries, or cherries, or raisins or any other dried fruit you like

Steps:

  • 1. Dump the peanut butter and the butterscotch chips into a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high 2 1/2 - 3 minutes or until the chips are melted.
  • 2. Stir the melted peanut butter and butterscotch chips together until they are well combined and smooth.
  • 3. Add the cereal, nuts, and fruit and mix well until everything is evenly coated.
  • 4. Cover a large cookie sheet with waxed paper or parchment paper. Using a small spoon, drop 24 haystacks onto the cookie sheet. Chill in the refrigerator until firm, then transfer to a container and keep these refrigerated for best results, but especially when the weather is hot.
  • 5. Here are the nutritional values for these - based on using peanuts: 1 haystack = 125 calories; 9g fat; 3g fiber; 12g protein; 7% daily value Vitamin E; 6% daily value iron; 13% daily value zinc.
