CHOW MEIN NOODLE COOKIE

Steps:

• Drop by teaspoonfuls onto foil. Let stand until cool.

NO-BAKE CHOW MEIN NOODLE COOKIES

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with wax paper or parchment paper.
• Place both the butterscotch chips and the chocolate chips in a large microwave-safe bowl. Melt the chips together in the microwave, stirring chips every 30-45 seconds, until smooth.
• Remove from microwave and begin folding in the chow mein noodles a little at a time until they are completely coated with the melted chip mixture. Fold in peanuts until they are completely coated.
• Drop chow mein mixture by the spoonful onto prepared baking sheet. Place baking sheet in the refrigerator until Chow Mein Cookies have completely set.
• Once Chow Mein Cookies have set, store covered at room temperature.

MARSHMALLOW PEANUT BUTTER NO BAKE COOKIES

Steps:

• First, melt the butterscotch chips and peanut butter in a medium saucepan over low heat, stirring just until barely melted and smooth. Remove from heat and add the chow mein noodles.
• Wait 1-2 minutes before stirring in the marshmallows - you don't want them to melt so if your mixture is really hot, wait until it cools a bit before adding the marshmallows. Your peanut butter mixture shouldn't be very hot, but if you heated it a little bit too long, give it time to cool.
• Use two spoons to drop mixture by cookie size onto wax paper to cool. The setting process will take a few hours at room temperature but takes a lot less time if you put the cookies in the fridge to set.

HAYSTACK COOKIES

Steps:

• Prep - Add parchment paper to a baking sheet
• Melting down Butterscotch - while no bake cookies and treats are super fun and super kid friendly, any time you are melting down baking chips of any time there can be some frustration. The key to having a positive experience is PATIENCE. Your butterscotch is added to a microwave safe bowl and heated for 20 seconds at a time. Pull out, stir, 20 seconds back in, until completely melted. Be careful, the chips (and bowl) can get quite hot.
• DO NOT OVERHEAT or you will end up with a hard mess. My butterscotch chips took about 1 minute 30 seconds to fully melt down.
• Create Your Cookies - Now dump your chow mein can into the butterscotch chips and stir until completely incorporated together. This is a thick mixture so you may need a spoon to dig down and get all the chow mein noddles covered.
• Set - Use a 1 tablespoon scoop (or 2 spoons) to carefully lift out the haystacks and add in little stacks on your parchment paper. Depending on how big you make your cookies, you can get 14-18 haystacks out of each one. Once done, you can add bits of nuts, candy, or sprinkles before they set.
• Cool Completely - To quickly harden the butterscotch, put your baking sheet into the refrigerator or freezer. It takes approx 5 minutes to harden to touch in freezer or 6-8 minutes in fridge. I prefer freezer to initially set cookies
• Storage - Once completely hardened, store in a gallon size zip lock container or air tight Tupperware. Because these cookies are so easy to make and set wonderfully, they also make a great cookie to bring to office parties, classrooms, and to send home with people as gifts.

BUTTERSCOTCH HAYSTACKS

Steps:

• Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
• Melt the butterscotch chips in a large glass bowl. You can do this over a double boiler or in the microwave. If you use the microwave, be sure to do it in 15 second intervals, stirring well in between each so that the chips don't burn.
• Once the butterscotch chips are melted, add in the chow mein noodles.
• Give the noodles a good coating. At this point, add in other mix ins else desired.
• Using two spoons, scoop the coated noodles into bite sized cookies and place them on a tray lined with parchment.
• Allow the cookies to set until the butterscotch is hardened. You can speed up this process by sticking the tray in the freezer or fridge.
• Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
