Easter Bird Nests

My mother always made Easter special by making fun little treats.  She would make coconut cake, dye the coconut green and place jelly beans on top.  Or make bunny shaped cakes.  So here’s my fun little Easter treat.  I have seen a similar recipe on Pinterest and decided to make my version today.  I think they turned out pretty adorable.

 

Ingredients

Nestle Butterscotch Morsels (11 oz.)

1 cup peanut butter

La Choy Chow Mein Noodles (12 oz.)

Cadbury Mini Eggs (10 oz.)

Line  two cookie sheets with foil.

Over medium low heat in a large dutch oven sized pot, heat the butterscotch chips and peanut butter until melted.  Stir often and be careful not to burn.  After melting, gently fold in the chow mein noodles until all noodles are coated.  Drop large mounds onto lined cookie sheets and let cool for 2 or 3 minutes.  Then kind of mush them together and make an indention in the middle.

Once they are cool place on serving platter and add Cadbury Mini Eggs.  Voila!

Happy Easter!
