Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package (16 oz.) Chocolate Candy
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 3 cups Chow Mein noodles
- Cadbury Mini Eggs / Vegan Jelly Tots
Instructions
- Melt the chocolate and peanut butter in a microwave-safe bowl. One minute, then stir. Still lumpy? Go for 15-second intervals until it’s smooth.
- Dump the chocolate mix over the Chow Mein noodles in a big bowl. Stir it gently until every noodle looks like it’s been dipped in chocolate heaven.
- Spoon little mounds onto wax paper to create your nests!
- You can also spoon the mixture into a silicon mould (see images)
- After a minute or so, shape them with the back of a spoon to make a dip in the middle.
- Not to worry about perfection, when’s the last time you saw a bird’s nest that looked like it came from a mold.
- Let them cool until firm. Toss them in the fridge
- Once the nests are set, drop a few Cadbury Mini Eggs / Vegan Jelly Tots in each one.
- These nests are so cute, you’ll feel a little bad eating them
