Makes approx 8 Chocolate Nests 

A really good recipe quick and easy to make with a wow factor at the end. I made these for my sons class and they were a great hit, I used melted white chocolate on the top to secure the little eggs in place.

 

I made these with my girls and they loved them so much we are making them for their classmates. I bought some Easter candy bags from Box and Wrap so we can individually wrap each nest. These bags have bunnies on them..they are much cuter than just plain cello bags. Thanks so much for the recipe!
