Servings: 10 to 12 Cookies
Equipment
Ingredients
- 12 ounces white chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 3 cups chow mein noodles
- ½ cup marshmallow bits or ½ cup mini marshmallows cut into quarters
- chocolate syrup for drizzling
- holiday colored sprinkles or rainbow nonpareils, for topping
Instructions
- Prep. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Melt the white chocolate. Combine the white chocolate chips and vegetable oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring well after each burst, until smooth. This can take up to 2 minutes, depending on your microwave.
- Mix. Pour the melted chocolate into a large mixing bowl. Add the chow mein noodles and marshmallow bits and gently fold until evenly coated.
- Scoop. Drop the mixture in roughly ½-cup mounds onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between them.
- Decorate. Drizzle the haystacks with chocolate syrup and top with sprinkles.
- Chill. Refrigerate for about 15 minutes, or until the chocolate coating is firm and the cookies lift easily from the parchment.
Notes
- For dark chocolate haystacks, replace the white chocolate chips with 12 ounces of semisweet or dark chocolate chips and follow the same directions.
