No Bake Chow Mein Noodle Cookies
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
Step-by-step instructions
- 1

- 2
Add peanut butter and noodles. Mix thoroughly.
- 3
Drop into rounded mounds onto waxed paper.
- 4
Let set for at least 15 minutes.

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.
