Easter Nests

My mom always made these with us when we were kids, and my kids loved making them too!

They are marshmallow, peanut butter and chocolate Easter Nests with candy eggs!

Ingredients:

1 jar (7oz.) marshmallow creme (about 2 cups)

1/4 cup creamy peanut butter

2 tbsp melted butter

1 can (5 oz.) chow mein noodles (about 3 cups)

1 cup chopped, Easter plain M & M's

36 - 48 Easter peanut M & M's

Directions:

Combine marshmallow creme, peanut butter, and butter.  Mix well.  

Add noodles and chopped M & M's a little at a time.  Mix well.

Prepare a baking sheet with wax or parchment paper and sprinkle powder sugar over paper.

Drop 1/3 cupfuls onto the cookie sheet.

Use your fingers to form nests.

Place 3-4 peanut M & M's into each nest.  I like to mix colors because it looks cuter :)

Place into the refrigerator to set up for at least 15 minutes.

Enjoy! 

I would love to hear what your favorite Easter treats are and if you make these, how they turn out :)

Happy cooking!
