Cookie recipe exchange

I wanted new cookie recipes for the holidays, so I thought it would be fun if we could all exchange a recipe or two. Happy baking!

I'll check later for other recipes I love, but these are so easy and nice to do in a hurry. They're more like candy than a cookie, but people seem to love them.

Chinese Noodle Cookies

1 (6 oz.) pkg. butterscotch chips
2 (6 oz.) pkgs. chocolate chips
1 (303) can Chinese noodles
1 c. cashews (or other nuts, like peanuts)

Melt chips, add cashews and noodles. Drop tablespoons of mixture on wax paper. Store after cookies are set.

I've heard those called Bird's Nest cookies :)

I think I've heard them called hay stacks!

I think haystacks use coconut. At least, the ones I'm familiar with.
