It's comfort food time!!! We had an ice storm where I live recently so this is code for: cook all the comfort food you can shove into your mouth! lol I started our ice storm comfort food extravaganza with homemade gnocchi. This was my first time making gnocchi and it was a good trial run. It is a good use for leftover mashed potatoes. I turned my gnocchi into an Italian chicken and dumplings. This dish definitely fit the comfort food bill!

I always like to make treats during ice storms. This recipe came from a lady I met at my school. She made these as a treat for a classroom party and I was hooked. Haystacks are almost foolproof! I say almost because I know some out there (not to mention any names...Scott) could mess them up. lol The recipe consists of only 4 ingredients!
1 cup butterscotch chips
1/2 cup peanut butter chips
t tablespoon crisco
1 1/2 cups chow mein noodles
Melt the first 3 ingredients on the stove or in the microwave and then pour over the chow mein noodles. Scoop mounds of the mixture onto wax paper to set up for about 30 mins.
