Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
- For a richer, more decadent flavor, use dark chocolate or semi-sweet chocolate.
- If you don't have a double boiler, you can melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this will make the haystacks tough.
- Chill the haystacks for at least 30 minutes before serving, this will help them to set and hold their shape.
- For a fun and festive twist, decorate the haystacks with sprinkles, chopped nuts, or mini chocolate chips.
- Store the haystacks in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
