Ting a Lings

Four ingredients. Twenty minutes. A cookie tray that looks like you spent all afternoon in the kitchen.

Ting-a-lings are one of those old-school holiday candies that never go out of style. Melt chocolate chips and butterscotch chips together, stir in salty peanuts and crispy chow mein noodles, then drop spoonfuls onto wax paper and let them set.

That’s it. That’s the whole recipe.

The chocolate-butterscotch combo is rich and sweet, the noodles bring that signature crunch, and the peanuts keep everything grounded with a salty bite.

Kitchen Tips

• Melt the chips low and slow, stirring constantly. Butterscotch chips burn fast if you rush them.
• Work quickly once everything is mixed. The chocolate sets up as it cools, and lumpy spoonfuls are harder to drop.
• Swap in dry roasted peanuts for extra salt, or use cashews if you want something a little more buttery.
