Birds Nest Cookies

No Bake Birds Nest Cookies -  On Easter Sunday my family had everyone over for dinner. I decided to make these cookies after stumbling upon them online. They are perfect for a Easter decoration or even as dessert!

Ingredients Needed:
  • 1 package chocolate chips
  • 1/4 c. peanut butter
  • 1 can crunchy Chinese noodles
  • 1 bag of Mini Eggs
  1. Melt chocolate chips and peanut butter together in the microwave. Be careful not to overheat. The best way to do that is to stir it every minute until it is smooth. ( * I stirred it every 30 seconds)
  2. Mix in the noodles and spoon into little "nests" onto wax paper.
  3. Press two or three robin's eggs into the center of the cookie. The Cadbury Mini-Eggs work really well, but you can substitute with jelly beans, yogurt covered raisins, Jordan almonds, etc.
  4. Refrigerate until hard.

*For a bit more variation 
you can substitute butterscotch or cinnamon chips instead of chocolate chips!

* I picked blue mini eggs because they looked the most like Robin eggs :)
