Description
Classic no-bake clusters of chow-mein noodles coated in a silky milk-chocolate and butterscotch blend—crunchy, nostalgic, and ready in minutes.
Ingredients
Scale
- Milk chocolate chips 1 cup
- Butterscotch chips 1 cup
- Chow-mein noodles 5 oz
Instructions
- In a microwave-safe bowl, heat milk chocolate and butterscotch chips in 30-second bursts, stirring between, until mostly melted; stir off-heat until smooth and glossy.
- Gently fold in chow-mein noodles until every strand is evenly coated.
- Use two spoons to drop small “haystacks” onto a parchment-lined tray, tidying edges as needed.
- Let set at room temperature until firm, or chill 10–15 minutes for faster setting; serve when solid.
Notes
- Work quickly once melted; re-warm the bowl for 5–8 seconds if the mixture thickens.
- Swaps: try part semisweet chocolate, broken pretzel sticks, or crispy rice cereal; keep total volume similar for proper coating.
- Storage: airtight up to 5 days (cool room); refrigerate in warm climates; freeze up to 2 months with parchment between layers.
