Chocolate Nests For Easter Food

EASY EASTER NESTS

Steps:

• Melt the chocolate in a small bowl placed over a pan of barely simmering water. Pour the chocolate over the shredded wheat and stir well to combine.
• Spoon the chocolate wheat into 12 cupcake cases and press the back of a teaspoon in the centre to create a nest shape. Place 3 mini chocolate eggs on top of each nest. Chill the nests in the fridge for 2 hrs until set.

HOW TO MAKE EASY AND EDIBLE EASTER NEST EGGS

Steps:

• Line a 6-cup muffin pan with plastic wrap. Melt 1 cup baking chips (dark, milk or white chocolate, or butterscotch, depending on which you choose above) in the microwave. Stir in 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 cups dry ingredients (depending on which you choose above).
• Scoop the mixture into the muffin cups and make an indentation in each to form nests. Refrigerate until set, about 10 minutes. Remove and fill with blue jelly beans and chocolates or other treats.
