Easter Improv!

After finishing 4 exams in 3 days, I needed to unwind a bit. I figured what better way to do this than to bake things. with mini eggs.

I wanted to make nests, but all the recipes either had too many ingredients, or seemed too sweet, so I just kinda played it by ear and made a delicious, yet still very sweet, creation!

sooo cute :D

Here are my made-up ingredients:

1 cup melted semi-sweet chocolate

1 cup unsweetened coconut

1/2 cup all natural peanut butter (I used crunchy because that's all I had, but I would opt for smooth next time)

Mini eggs or jelly beans, or any other egg-shaped candies for garnish 

yummy ingreds

I basically just melted the chocolate, mixed the peanut butter and coconut, and then combined the two bowls. Set out little nests on wax paper spread out on a baking tray, and refrigerate for a few hours-overnight to set, and then store in the fridge or freezer. 

 These were probably one of the easiest things I have ever made. Such a festive addition to any easter gift pack. 

I think my roommates are going to hate me a little bit for making them so many treats in my newfound spare time (I made oatmeal cookies this week too), but I actually cannot handle having a light workload, so I have focused a fair amount of my attention toward the kitchen this week. Deal with it.

Enjoy your nests! I'm sure we will be back with more Easter treats in the very near future, so stay tuned.
