The other day I told you I had another Easter recipe, and I do not want to disappoint! I made these adorable little Easter Egg Nests. I'm sure you have seen a similar version all over food blogland. I combined techniques from two different recipes and came up with my own twist on these adorable "nests". Some people like to use Peeps as the birds. We aren't too fond of Peeps at our house, so I didn't want to use them just for the look of it. I decided to use candy eggs to fill up those nests instead of Peeps. They can still be nests! Just Easter egg nests instead of birds' nests :)
Easter Egg Nests
- 6 oz butterscotch morsels
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 5 cups pretzel sticks
- 1 square of Bakers semi sweet baking chocolate
- candy eggs, like Cadbury
