Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the popped popcorn, pretzel sticks, and mini marshmallows. Gently toss the mixture to ensure an even distribution of ingredients. Set aside.
-
In a medium saucepan, melt the butterscotch chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips, unsalted butter, vanilla extract, and salt over low heat. Stir constantly until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
-
Pour the melted butterscotch-chocolate mixture over the popcorn mixture in the bowl. Using a rubber spatula, carefully fold the mixture together until everything is evenly coated.
-
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, portion out the haystack mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming small haystack-shaped mounds.
-
Allow the haystacks to set at room temperature for about 1-2 hours, or until the butterscotch-chocolate coating has hardened.
-
Once the haystacks have set, transfer them to an airtight container for storage. Store in a cool, dry place or in the refrigerator if you prefer a firmer texture.
-
Serve these delightful Popcorn Haystacks as a delicious snack for parties, movie nights, or any time you're craving a sweet and salty treat.
