This is a quick and simple no-bake cookie that I used often as my kids were growing up - too many times I would realize that I was expected to bring cookies to a school progam in a couple hours and had nothing prepared. There were never any left to bring home so I can tell you from experience that it is easily doubled and that tripled, I used exactly one 12 oz package of chow mein noodles! There are other chow mein noodle cookies on here but all that I found called for chips, this one does not. Ingredients:
1/2 cup corn syrup |
1/2 cup sugar |
1 cup creamy peanut butter |
1 cup chow mein noodles (i use a bit more) |
Directions:
1. Bring sugar and syrup to a full boil in a heavy pan. Remove from heat at once. (Over cooking will make a hard cookie.)
2. Add peanut butter and noodles. Mix thoroughly.
3. Drop into rounded mounds onto waxed paper.
4. Let set for at least 15 minutes.
5. NOTE: I usually add more noodles for a crunchier cookie. I add a half cup or so at a time, stirring them in to make sure they will still stick together before deciding whether to add more or to stop.
6. PREP time includes cooling.
