[Mrs. M. Mouse]

here's the easiest one I know

Birds nest cookies

1 pkg semi sweet chocolate chips
1 pkg caramel or butterscotch chips
1 pkg chinese noodles (the short hard ones)

Melt the chips in a pot, add the noodles to coat (may not need the whole bag of noodles) scoop out onto parchment paper and let set until hardened...enjoy.

These freeze well. I have other recipe's too but not with me right now.

Thank you. Do you have any that doesn't need to be frozen or refrigerated? I was thinking of maybe making some no bake cookies with some younger children as a project.

Cookies start at #792, there are some no-bakes there. Also, look in the candy section #791.

INGREDIENTS:
2 cups white sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup margarine 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
1/2 cup chunky peanut butter
3 cups quick cooking oats
DIRECTIONS:
1. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar, cocoa, milk and margarine. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Boil for 1 minute, then remove from heat and stir in the vanilla, salt, peanut butter and oats.
2. Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto waxed paper. Allow cookies to cool for at least 1 hour. Store in an airtight container.

Careful on the boiling time. Do exactly 1 minute. Longer- cookies will be too dry. Shorter-cookies won't set up. (if this happens- we call them spoon cookies - just get a spoon and scrape them off of the wax paper!!! Still tastes great)

These do not need to be frozen or refridgerated just set for 15-20 minutes on the counter top. as soon as the chocolate chips and caramel chips set (dry) they can be eaten...it doesn't take long.

However if you want to store the left overs you can freeze them without changing the flavor or texture of them!

I've made these for Valentine's Day in heart shapes. When the kids couldn't handle the shape, they just made circles. We always skip the silver dragées though.

Cornflake Wreath Cookies


½ c butter
3 c miniature marshmallows
½ tsp almond extract
½ tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp green food color
4 c corn flakes
red hot candies
silver dragées

Melt butter, add marshmallows, stirring until all marshmallows are melted. Add extracts and food coloring; stir until it is a uniform green color. When mixture is smooth, add corn flakes; mix well but gently so as not to crush the cornflakes. Form into wreath shapes on sheets of waxed paper, decorate with red cinnamon candies and silver dragées. Let cool.
