Delicious chocolate nests made with white chocolate and chow mein noodles, perfect for Easter treats.
Ingredients
Scale
- 10 ounces white chocolate melting wafers
- 1½ tablespoons coconut oil
- 3 cups dry chow mein noodles
- 3 drops green food coloring
- 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
- Cadbury Mini Eggs, jelly beans, or other similar candies
Instructions
- In a medium microwave-safe bowl, add the white chocolate wafers. Heat for about 30 seconds, then remove and stir. Continue to heat and stir in 30-second intervals until the wafers are almost completely melted.
- Once almost completely melted, add the coconut oil and stir well until combined and the chocolate is eventually completely melted.
- Add the chow mein noodles to the melted white chocolate and gently mix to coat.
- Spray cupcake pans with nonstick spray, then add a spoonful of chow mein noodles to each tin to form a small nest. You will want it to come up to the lip of the pan.
- Place the shredded coconut into a freezer bag. Add 3 drops of green food coloring, seal, and shake until all the coconut is green and looks like ‘grass.’
- Add about 1 tablespoon of coconut grass to the top of each bird nest and place your favorite kind of egg-shaped candy on top.
- Let the treats cool until you are able to easily unmold them. Enjoy!
