"HEALTHY" HAYSTACKS

Steps:
- 1. Dump the peanut butter and the butterscotch chips into a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high 2 1/2 - 3 minutes or until the chips are melted.
- 2. Stir the melted peanut butter and butterscotch chips together until they are well combined and smooth.
- 3. Add the cereal, nuts, and fruit and mix well until everything is evenly coated.
- 4. Cover a large cookie sheet with waxed paper or parchment paper. Using a small spoon, drop 24 haystacks onto the cookie sheet. Chill in the refrigerator until firm, then transfer to a container and keep these refrigerated for best results, but especially when the weather is hot.
