Ingredients

• 4 cups Chow mein noodles
• 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup Butterscotch chips
• 0.5 cup Creamy peanut butter
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup Optional sprinkles

Directions

Step 1

Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or wax paper and set aside.

Step 2

In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and peanut butter.

Step 3

Microwave the mixture in 30-second increments, stirring well after each increment, until the chips are melted and the mixture is smooth. This should take about 1.5 to 2 minutes total.

Step 4

Stir in the vanilla extract to the melted mixture.

Step 5

Add the chow mein noodles to the bowl and gently fold them into the mixture until fully coated.

Step 6

Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, drop portions of the coated noodles onto the prepared baking sheets to form clusters.

Step 7

If desired, sprinkle your noodle clusters with colorful sprinkles for added decoration.

Step 8

Let the noodle candy clusters cool and set completely at room temperature for about 1 to 2 hours, or speed up the process by placing the tray in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Step 9

Once the clusters are fully set, transfer them to an airtight container for storage. They will keep fresh for up to 1 week at room temperature.
