Ingredients

  • 16 oz white almond bark
  • 3 cups chow mein noodles
  • gel green food coloring
  • ¼ cup holiday sprinkles

Instructions

  • Add the almond bark to a large microwave-safe bowl.
  • Melt in the microwave in 30-second increments, until melted. Mine took about 90 seconds total.
  • Stir until the almond bark is smooth.
  • Add drops of green food coloring until desired color is reached.
  • Add the chow mein noodles to the almond bark. Stir until coated completely.
  • With a spoon, drop mounds of chow mein mixture on a parchment lined baking sheet. Leaving some space in between each cookie.
  • Immediately add holiday sprinkles to the top of each cookie.
  • Let the haystack cookies dry at room temperature. Alternatively, you can place them in the refrigerator to harden quicker.

Notes

  • I used white almond bark in this recipe. You could also use white chocolate baking melts, instead. 
  • I used gel food coloring for this recipe. You only need a few drops to reach the desired green color. Depending on what type of green shade you use, you may need more or less food coloring to reach your desired color. 
  • If you use liquid food coloring, you will need more food coloring. I’d start with 1/4 teaspoon and go from there. Gel food coloring is more concentrated than liquid food coloring so you don’t need to use as much. 
  • To store leftover ting-a-ling cookies, you can leave them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. For longer storage, you can store them in the refrigerator. Let sit out for 20 minutes before serving if you are storing them in the refrigerator.
