Description
Delightfully whimsical cookies featuring crispy noodles, rich butterscotch, and creamy peanut butter, perfect for any festive occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups crispy noodles
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- Candy eggs
Instructions
- Melt the butterscotch: In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the butterscotch chips. Stir gently and continuously to prevent burning. Once melted and smooth, remove from heat.
- Combine with peanut butter: Fold the creamy peanut butter into the melted butterscotch until fully blended, creating a luscious mixture.
- Mix with crispy noodles: In a large mixing bowl, introduce the crispy noodles to the butterscotch-peanut butter mixture. Gently fold until the noodles are coated.
- Shape the nests: Using a spoon or cookie scoop, place tablespoonfuls of the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking tray, shaping each scoop into a nest and creating an indentation for the candy eggs.
- Set the nests: Allow to set at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or refrigerate to speed up the process.
- Add the candy eggs: Once set, place candy eggs carefully into the center of each nest.
Notes
These cookies can be made a day in advance and stored in an airtight container. Use vegan butterscotch chips for a vegan option.
