Ingredients

  • 12 ounces white chocolate chips
  • 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 12 ounces Chinese chow mein noodles
  • Sprinkles

Instructions

  • Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave in 30 second intervals until smooth.
  • Stir to combine.
  • Add the chow mein noodles and stir to coat evenly.
  • Scoop out and place small mounds on baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
  • Garnish with festive sprinkles!
  • Let set for 15 minutes or until completely solid.
  • Enjoy or store until ready to eat.

Notes

  • start with good quality chocolate and melt carefully.
  • the microwave is the easiest way to melt the chocolate chips but you can use a double boiler as well.
  • switch up the flavor of chips you use and add in some other goodies.
  • use an ice cream scoop to keep the stacks uniform in shape.
  • once you scoop them onto the baking paper, use your fingers or hands to shape them into stacks before they solidify.
  • use parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to set up cookies. I wouldn’t recommend wax paper as it can melt slightly with the heat of the chocolate.
