🧂 Ingredients

1 Fill your cupcake pan with cupcake liners. Do this ahead of time because when
you are building your nests, you want to have them made before the chocolate
solidifies.
2 In a microwave safe bowl, mix together the peanut butter and semi sweet
chocolate then microwave at 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until the
mixture is smooth.

Or use a pot on the stove, making sure to stir frequently so the chocolate
doesn't burn.
3 Crumble the cereal into pieces then pour it into the chocolate mixture and stir
until the cereal is completely coated with chocolate.
4 Place a heaping tablespoon full of the chocolate mixture into each cupcake
liner.

Press the back of a spoon into the mixture to create a bird nest shape so the
eggs can fit in the middle without falling out.

To harden the chocolate quickly, place the cupcake pan of nests into the freezer
for 15 minutes.

Once the chocolate nests have hardened you can remove them from the cupcake
liners.
5 Put your coconut in a plastic bag and add some green food coloring. Close the
bag and shake the coconut to coat the pieces with the green color. Add more food
coloring as needed. This part is really fun for kids to do.

Sprinkle a little of the green coconut in each nest.

Place 3 candy eggs in the middle of each nest. Now they are ready to be enjoyed!

For an extra cute touch, sprinkle extra green coconut on your serving tray and
place the Chocolate Easter Egg Nests on top.
