Equipment
Ingredients
- 12 ounce Bag of Milk Chocolate Chips – can substitute dark chocolate
- 12 ounce Bag of Butterscotch Chips
- 12 ounce Bag of Chow Mein Noodles
- 1 teaspoon Sea Salt
- 1 13 ounce bag mini chocolate eggs
Instructions
- To a medium sized, microwave safe, bowl add milk chocolate chips and butterscotch chips. Place bowl in microwave and set time for 1 minute, checking the melting process every 10 seconds. After 1 minute, remove bowl from microwave and stir melted chocolate chips – should have a thick, creamy consistency.
- Divide chow mein noodles into three equal portions. Add first portion of noodles into chocolate mixture and stir to coat. Repeat with remaining portions of noodles, making sure everything is well coated in chocolate mixture.
- Line either three baking pans or your countertop with parchment paper. Scoop a small amount of noodle mixture onto a spoon, and using a second spoon begin to shape mixture into a 1" ball. Place ball on parchment and create a small indentation in the center using the back of a spoon. Sprinkle sea salt lightly over the nests.
- Place 2 or 3 chocolate eggs in the center of the cookie. Repeat this process with remaining mixture, adding chocolate eggs to the center of each cookie. Let sit out on counter until chocolate hardens, then serve.
