Easter Nest Dessert – Just 3 Ingredients!

If you’re looking for a quick and easy dessert to add to your Easter menu, look no further.  These easy Easter nests took just ten minutes to make!

Ingredients for Easter Nests:

• Candy Coating (Vanilla or Chocolate)
• Chow Mein Noodles (I almost never buy these for any other reason – but they’re PERFECT for this!)
• Cadbury Mini Eggs (or any Easter egg shaped candies)

This fun Easter dessert can be made in less than 10 minutes.  It’s super easy and kiddos can help out too!

Here’s how to make Easter nests:

Start by melting your candy coating in the microwave.  If you don’t have candy coating on hand, you could also use chocolate chips.

You could also melt the chocolate in a separate pan over simmering water if you don’t want to use the microwave.  Grab a large bowl and mix your chocolate mixture and the chow mein noodles together.

Once the chow mein noodles are well coated in the candy, drop by tablespoons onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet.  Then all you need to do to finish the Easter nests is add Cadbury mini eggs on top (I love those!)! You could also use jelly beans or other chocolate eggs if you have those on hand already.

You can then use them to decorate your table or you could add them to a dessert (this Dirt Cake recipe would be perfect for this!)

Simple, easy, and delicious – You’re welcome. 🙂
