I know exactly what you are talking about, my friends family used to make those all the time. I just asked my friend what the crunchy things were and she said some sort of crunchy noodle, she's going to ask her mom what exactly the ingrediant was. Hope you figure it out, but now I wanna know too!

Oh yay! Hopefully your friend finds something out!

I'm hoping to track the recipe down, but it's ridiculous how many things include chocolate and peanut butter. So it's not as simple as searching for it on google.

I bet it was chow mein noodles

Yeah I know what you mean, I have been trying to check on google also, lol. I wanna say it's those crunchy asian noodles. (chowmein??)

Lol, yeah I can picture it now, now we just need an actual recipe.
Those things are rather tastey

that's it!! The first two hits off .google are perfect!

yaaaaaaaaaay!

thanks so much, you two!

This may be similar. I'm sure it would be tasty if after you mixed everything together you dropped in some chocolate chips

1 cup butterscotch chips
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup peanuts
2 cups chow mein noodles
PREPARATION:
Microwave the butterscotch chips and peanut butter on 50 percent power for 3 to 5 minutes. Add remaining ingredients and blend to coat noodles thoroughly. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto waxed paper

YAY!!! I just got that recipe online too, you beat me to posting it, lol.
Have fun and enjoy if you decide to make em

*dances around happily*

.i'm making my husband go grocery shopping tomorrow for that stuff! It's on!

my mouth's watering already!

Heres the one I found, it actually calls for chocolate..yuummy!
