I love to make these Easy Chocolate Haystacks with my kids. They are really easy to make and the kids love them. This recipe is a good one to experiment with ingredients too. Sometimes we add white chocolate, raisins, cherries or crushed peppermints. You can be as adventurous as you like!
To make these, start by mixing the dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Heat the sugar, milk, butter, and salt in a saucepan. Once the mixture comes to a boil, add the vanilla extract. Pour the mixture over the dry ingredients and stir well. That’s it. So simple yet so delicious!
