Chocolate Peanut Butter Haystacks


Ingredients
1 bag (12oz) semisweet chocolate chips (2 cups)
1/2 cup reduced-fat peanut butter
3 3/4 cups chow mein noodles

Line cookie sheets with waxed paper.
In large microwaveable bowl, microwave chocolate chips and peanut butter uncovered on High 1 minute, stirring after 30 seconds.  Microwave 30 seconds to 1 minute longer, stirring every 15 seconds, until smooth. Stir in noodles until well coated.
Drop mixture by rounded teaspoonfuls onto waxed paper. Refrigerate until chocolate is firm.

To make this recipe healthier, substitute Fiber One original bran cereal for the chow mein noodles. Fiber One cereal has 12 times the fiber, half the amount of sodium, and 20 less calories per serving, compared to the noodles.
