Continue microwaving in 10-20 second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is completely smooth and melted.
Remove from microwave and stir in 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter until thoroughly combined.
Add 4 cups chow mein noodles and 1 cup mini marshmallows to the chocolate mixture.
Stir until all ingredients are evenly coated.
Drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto a cookie sheet lined with wax paper.
Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the haystacks to set before serving.
