Bird's Nest Cookies: A Delightfully Crisp Spring Time Treat

Bird's Nest Cookies, an easy to make, kid-friendly, delightfully crisp, spring time treat.

INGREDIENTS:

• 12 oz. package of chow mein noodles
• 11 oz. package of butterscotch morsels
• 1 bag of Cadbury mini eggs

Melt the butterscotch morsels in the microwave 30 second intervals (stir between intervals) until it completely melts. This step only took me a total of 1 minute.

When the butterscotch is melted, add the chow mein noodles, and mix until the noodles are evenly coated. 

Quickly scoop out the mounds of the noodle mixture onto a tray lined with wax paper, and press an indent in them to form a nest shape (and a place to hold the eggs).

I think the next step is the fun part, adding the chocolate eggs to the nests.

We used 2 tablespoons of melted butterscotch morsels for the "glue" to hold the eggs in place in the nests.

The delightfully crisp smell of spring is in the air and so is the sweet smell of Bird's Nest Cookies.
