How to Make Peanut Butter Chocolate Clusters

  1. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan over low heat, melt together 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, 1/2 cup butterscotch chips, 1/4 cup unsalted butter, and 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter. Stir frequently until completely smooth and melted.
  2. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup roasted peanuts (or 1/2 cup raisins), 1/2 cup chow mein noodles, and a pinch of salt. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  3. Drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto wax paper-lined baking sheets, forming 1-inch mounds.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until the clusters are firm and set.
  5. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
