Ingredients
Scale
- 10 ounces chow mein noodles (about 6 cups)
- 2 cups butterscotch chips
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
Instructions
- Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large, microwave-safe bowl, combine the butterscotch chips and chocolate chips.
- Microwave the chips in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the mixture is completely smooth.
- Stir the creamy peanut butter into the melted chips until fully combined.
- Add the chow mein noodles to the bowl. Gently fold the mixture until the noodles are evenly coated with the chocolate and butterscotch mixture.
- Drop rounded spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets.
- Allow the cookies to set completely at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or speed up the process by chilling them in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
- Serve these crunchy cookie clusters once firm.
Notes
- For a variation, substitute pretzels for the chow mein noodles to create a salty-sweet crunch.
- If you prefer a stronger chocolate flavor, use 1.5 cups of chocolate chips and 1.5 cups of butterscotch chips.
- These are excellent for last minute dessert ideas because they require no oven time.
