Ingredients
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup peanut butter chips
- 4 cups chow mein noodles
- mini eggs for topping
Instructions
- In a large microwave safe bowl, combine 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 cup peanut butter chips. Melt in the microwave at 50% power for 1 minute. Stir and then continue melting in 30 second increments at 50% power until fully melted and smooth.
- Add 4 cups chow mein noodles and stir until the noodles are fully covered by the chocolate peanut butter mixture.
- Scoop one tablespoon of the noodle mixture onto the parchment paper. Immediately press in 2 mini eggs and flatten slightly to hold them.
- Allow the cookies to cool and set for at least 10-15 minutes prior to eating.
Notes
If you can’t find chow mein noodles at your grocery store, straight pretzels will work just as well.
If you would like a gooier treat, use cream eggs instead of mini eggs. Just be sure to remove the foil first.
