- Silicone spatula
- wax paper
- Candy-Coated Chocolate Easter Eggs
- Small spoon
Instructions for this Haystack Cookie Recipe with Chow Mein Noodles
- Pour your chocolate chips and butterscotch chips into the glass bowl
- Microwave them for 1 minute, stir, and then microwave for 30 more seconds and stir until smooth
- Add the chow mein noodles to your melted chocolate and fold them in until coated
- Set out one or more long strips of wax paper onto your work surface until you have enough to hold 1 dozen haystack nests
- Grab a spoonful of chocolate-coated chow mein noodles and plop it onto the wax paper into a small mound
- Use your spoon to press the middle down and form a little bird nest shape. *Don’t worry about being perfect here. You want the stray little sticks here and there
- While the chocolate is still wet, add 2 or 3 little chocolate eggs to the center
- Repeat until you are all out of chow mein noodles and you are done!
That’s it! Happy Spring, Summer, and Easter!
