A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

Heat a double boiler over hot, not boiling, water. Add the butterscotch chips and cook, stirring occasionally, until melted.
Carefully remove the top of the double boiler and place it on a heat-proof surface or trivet.
Stir the chow mein noodles and peanuts into the melted butterscotch.
Drop the butterscotch haystacks onto waxed paper by spoonfuls and let set until firm. Store the haystack cookies in an airtight container. These cookies can also be frozen.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

I occasionally bring in homemade treats for my coworkers. Since it's autumn now, I thought these easy-to-make "haystacks" would be appropriate and a nice change from the usual cookies. They went over pretty well, I would say!

I've been making this candy for my children since they were young and now that they are adults they still expect it every Christmas.
