Ingredients

1 3/4 cups chow mein noodles
3/4 cup salted almonds roughly chopped
3/4 cup Heath Bits O' Brickle English Toffee Bits
16 oz. chocolate candy coating

Instructions

Melt the chocolate over medium heat on the stovetop or microwave, stirring regularly.
Add the chow mein noodles, chopped almonds, and English toffee bits. Reserve some toffee to sprinkle on top.
Stir the mixture until fully coated, then drop by spoonfuls onto wax paper. Sprinkle with reserved toffee bits and/or additional chopped almonds.
Cool completely until chocolate is hardened.
Serve immediately or store at room temperature.

Notes

Tips:

I highly suggest using chocolate candy coating instead of chocolate chips. Candy coating is made for melting so it's extra smooth and creamy. If you do use chocolate chips, I'd suggest adding 2 tablespoons of shortening to them to help with the melting process.
Melt the chocolate slowly and be sure to stir it often to prevent over-heating.
To save time, use a food processor to chop the almonds.
Be sure all the ingredients are fully coated in chocolate before forming them into haystacks.
