SIMPLE EASTER NESTS



Simple Easter Nests image

Just my take on a favorite recipe!! There are so many out there but this is the way I like to make them!! When I made this today I yielded 6 large muffin tins, 6 small, and two left over "hand formed" nests. ;) Total of 14 assorted sizes - depends on your pans what you will yield. Cook time is chill time.

Yield 14 nests

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups chocolate chips
2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
4 cups chow mein noodles
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Heat water in double boiler over medium heat and add chocolate chips to top portion.
  • When chocolate begins to melt, add peanut butter and continue to stir until creamy.
  • Add broken chow mein noodles, stirring until completely coated.
  • Remove from heat and place upper portion on a folded towel to allow cooling while you prepare tins.
  • Spray muffin tins (I liked the large size best, but make both for varied sizes) with cooking spray (such as Pam).
  • Spoon generous amount of mixture into each cup creating a well in the center as you go.
  • Continue until all of mixture is used up.
  • Place jelly beans, M&M's Peeps or other candies for garnish as desired.
  • Chill in refridgerator for at least 1 hour or until chocolate has hardened.
  • Remove from tins and serve or package to gift - should be used within a couple of days.
  • For additional garnish, can be served on dyed green coconut and tied in cellophane bundles with ribbons to give as gifts.
  • Enjoy!
