HOW TO MAKE RICE CRISPY NESTS

This recipe is super easy.

Grease cupcake pans and set aside.

Melt marshmallows and butter in a microwave safe bowl (I cooked mine for 2 minutes) Stir together until well blended

Pour Rice Krispies Cereal and *Crispy Cookies into melted marshmallow. Stir until well combined.

Spoon your treats into greased cupcake pans and press down with wax paper and a large spoon to help shape the basket.

Let set for 30 minutes

Decorate and Enjoy!

Let set for a half hour. Then you pop them out and decorate!

We used Cadbury eggs on top of our easter nests, but you could easily use robin eggs, Easter M&M’s, or jelly beans instead!
Add some shredded coconut (made green with some food coloring if you like) before placing your eggs for added flavor and “grass” decor.
