How to Make Chinese Clusters

  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat 1 cup of chocolate chips on high for 1 minute. Stir well.
  2. Continue heating in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the chips are completely melted and smooth (total time should be around 2-3 minutes).
  3. Remove from microwave and stir in 1/2 cup chopped nuts (such as peanuts, cashews, or almonds) and 1/4 cup chow mein noodles.
  4. Line a baking sheet with wax paper. Drop rounded tablespoons of the chocolate mixture onto the wax paper, leaving space between each cluster.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the clusters to set. Enjoy!
