Easter Nests

Today I whipped up a batch of Easter Nests. They are always a hit with the Davis Herd. It used to be that the little fingers in the house would assist in the preparation of this scrumptious treat but my boys are growing up...and had better things today this morning.

Like, play basketball and help Dad with fencing.....SeRiOuSlY!
Anyway, I went ahead and prepared the festive goodies and think they look superb if I do say so.





Although there are many variations of this recipe, below is the one that we use.

2 bags of semi-sweet chocolate chips


4 TB creamy peanut butter


1.5-2 bags of chow mein noodles


speckled Runt Easter egg candy(this year)


Melt choc late chip and pb. Stir in chow mein noodles. Scoop onto cookie sheets lined with wax paper. I use a scoop the size of school mashed potatoes. Make a dent in the center of your noodles shaping into a birds nest. Add egg candy of your choice and refrigerate until firm.
