Oh my goodness, it does not get any easier than this! (You don’t even have to turn on the oven.) I made these candies as holiday gifts for my neighbors and they were a huge hit. The combination of 2 different chocolate chips, plus butterscotch chips, creates the perfect balance of flavors. The peanuts and pretzels add a salty crunch for an irresistible candy. One bite and you’ll be hooked!
