Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 6 cups chow mein noodles
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the butterscotch chips, chocolate chips, and peanut butter.
- Microwave on medium power for 30 seconds. Stir well. Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. This usually takes 1 to 2 minutes total.
- Pour the chow mein noodles into the melted mixture. Stir gently until the noodles are fully coated.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Form them into small mounds or ‘haystacks.’
- Let the cookies set at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or place them in the refrigerator for 15 minutes until firm.
Notes
- For a chocolate-only version, omit the butterscotch chips and use 2 cups of chocolate chips.
- You can substitute peanut butter with an equal amount of almond butter if needed.
- These cookies store well in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
