Always a favorite during the Christmas Holiday Season, these Chocolate and Butterscotch No Bake Cookies with Chow Mein Noodles were always a favorite during childhood that my mom made.

With all the hustle and bustle goings on, they're easy to make; can be made ahead and refrigerated; and even the kids can help!
Every generation had their name for them - some called them by Chews made with Chow Mein Noodles - my kid's generation called them Bird's Nests, and now they can be known as Haystack.
Combine your favorite flavors and decorate!
