We called them "Mars Munchies" and to this day they are traditional Christmas time treats in our family. I am intrigued by the texture option of the chow mein noodles. I'd probably just use crunchy peanut butter and skip adding whole peanuts.

I've only ever used Butterscotch Morsels, Chow Mein Noodles, and Salted Cashews in mine. Our whole family loves them! I think I'll try the peanut butter in them!
