Description

Cute little bird’s nests for Easter!

Ingredients

  • ½ cups Butter
  • ½ cups Dutch Processed Cocoa Powder
  • 1-½ cup Sugar
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • ½ cups Milk
  • ½ cups Creamy Peanut Butter
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 2 cups Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
  • 1 cup Sweetened, Flaked Coconut
  • 1 bag (about 9 Oz. Size) Candy Coated Egg-shaped Candies (like Peanut Butter M&Ms!)

Preparation

In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, melt together the butter, cocoa, sugar, salt and milk. Stir and cook until the mixture comes to a boil and then let boil for 1 minute.

Remove from the heat and stir in the peanut butter and vanilla until smooth, and then stir in the oats and coconut.

Scoop onto parchment-lined baking sheets and press 3 peanut butter m&m eggs (or any other small egg-shaped candy coated Easter candy!) into the top to make it look like a little nest!

Place in the fridge to set for a few hours and then transfer to a Tupperware container if you are not going to serve them right away. Store in the fridge!

Note: Of course you can make these year-round without the “nests” part. I just love this look for the holidays!
