No Bake Bird’s Nest Cookies
My son has reached an age where he is too cool for some things. Every year I worry that hunting for eggs on Easter will be one of them, but so far he hasn’t outgrown it and looks forward to it! What a relief!
Making bird nests for Easter is a tradition for us. Our favorite recipes to follow are Butterscotch and Peanut Butter Bird Nest Cookies or these No Bake Chocolate Bird’s Nest Cookies. They will not disappoint!
If you like making Easter treats, then you’ll love Scotcheroo Bird Nest Bites, Bunny Bait, and Easter Chocolate Chip Cookies, too!
What You’ll Need:
- 12 oz bag of Milk Chocolate Chips
- 11 oz bag of Butterscotch Chips
- 12 oz bag of Chow Mein Noodles
- Candy Eggs
How to Make No Bake Chocolate Bird’s Nest Cookies
- Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- Pour a 12 oz bag of milk chocolate chips and an 11 oz bag of butterscotch chips into a large bowl. Melt in the microwave, stirring every 60 seconds until melted and well combined.
- Add a 12 oz bag of chow mein noodles to the bowl and toss until well coated.
- Spoon scoops of mixture onto the parchment paper and shape into nests. Top each with 3 candy eggs. Repeat the process with the remaining mixture and top with candy eggs.
- Let nests set until firm.
Recipe Notes:
- Eggs – Make sure to put the candy eggs on the nests while the chocolate is still soft so they stick to the chocolate as it hardens. This will help to make sure the eggs stay in the nest!
- Shaping Nests – When you place a scoop of the mixture on the parchment paper, use a spoon to lightly press down the center of the nests. This makes a little bowl shape for the eggs to sit nicely in.
