Chow Mein Goodies - Makeover

I haven't posted in quite awhile because there hasn't been much to share. But I thought I'd start sharing some of my successes (when they happen, which is pretty rare!).

This was one of my absolute favorite recipes since I was a little kid. Super easy to make, cheap, quick, kid-friendly, and oh-so-yummy!
Unfortunately, chow mein noodles are wheat. Boo!

After trying to make it without the noodles (which resulted in a slab-like peanut butter/butterscotch fudge-like creation), my mom suggested I try it with Chex instead.

6 oz of butterscotch chips
1/2 cup of peanut butter
3 oz of chow mein noodles gluten-free Chex
2 cups of marshmallows

Melt the butterscotch chips until smooth
Add in the peanut butter
Pour mixture over the chow mein chex and marshmallows
Mix with your hands
Clump stacks onto wax paper and place in fridge.

YUMMY!
So.....the result of the experiment?
I like the Chex version WAY better than the chow mein version.
Woohoo!!!
