Happy Easter everyone!
This "recipe of the month" is all about your bunny-induced spring sugar fix!
Learn to make 3 EASY, QUICK Easter candies. You don't need the stove, don't need the oven and don't even need to measure the ingredients!
If you wish to make all 3 of these you will need:
2-3 bags of chocolate pieces (dark, white, or colored)
chow mein noodles
peanuts
jelly beans
candy/cookie sprinkles
Special Equipment: silicone candy mold - Easter shapes
(You can find these online, at craft stores, and many grocery stores.)

Be sure to stir the chocolate between each heating in the microwave. |
|
Add the chow mein noodles to the chocolate and stir to coat. |
|
The noodle chocolate mixture should look like this. |
|
Spoon the mixture into small clumps on a cookie sheet. |
|
Decorate each nest with 3 jelly beans, then refrigerate until the candy hardens. |
|
2. CHOCOLATE PEANUT NESTS
|
Melt the chocolate as with the bird nests above, but this time add peanuts. |
|
Stir the peanuts in until they are coated with chocolate. |
|
Spoon the mixture onto a cookie pan and decorate with jelly beans. Allow to harden in the refrigerator for 1 hour, then serve! | |
