Happy Easter! While these Chocolatey Peep Easter egg Nests might be a little bit late, it’s a recipe that you can save and devour year after year. Are they diet friendly? Absolutely not – but a fun treat to make with the kids? absolutely! It’s also a great way to use up some Easter chocolate (and peeps). So how did we make these mini Easter egg nests?
Honestly It was on a whim. I was headed to my parents house and wanted to make something sweet and simple to bring. I’m not sure if it’s a British thing but my mum always taught us that if we go to somebody else’s house, that you take something for the host. Whether thats a bottle of wine, flowers, or in this case mini Easter egg nests. They were so easy to make (and didn’t even require an oven!).
INGREDIENTS
- 1 PKG cotton candy peeps (can sub marshmallows)
- Regular rice crispies and chocolate rice crispies (You can use either or)
