My grandpa made these himself quite often, especially at Christmas time. Quick, easy, and no baking required! Also, try walnuts in place of the peanuts for a different version.

HAYSTACKS

I have made these cookies for my family for about 30 years now. My son (who is now 36 years old) gets so excited when I make these; he always enjoys them with a tall glass of milk. I find that I have to be careful when melting the butterscotch because it seems to scorch easily, so take care - this is an essential ingredient! Also, these are best enjoyed in the winter because they seem to melt and not taste as great in the warmer weather.

Currently I am obsessed with no bake cookies. #34401 are some of my favorites, but I was looking for ones without chocolate and came across this recipe in my "More With Less" cookbook. Really easy and fast and taste quite wonderful. My child who hates coconut even liked them!
