Description

Spring is in the air and Easter is right around the corner. This calls for a batch of adorable no bake butterscotch and peanut butter bird's nest cookies.


Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup butterscotch chips
  • 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
  • 2 cups chow mein noodles
  • 1/4 cup chocolate eggs (such as Cadbury mini eggs)

Instructions

  1. Melt the butterscotch chips with the peanut butter in a wide saucepan over low heat. Stir continuously until melted.
  2. Pour the mixture into a large bowl of the chow mein noodles and stir to combine.
  3. Fill up each compartment of a muffin tray with a spoonful of this mixture. (Note: to aid in removal of the cookies when set,  use a silicone muffin tray or line your muffin tray with cupcake liners).
  4. Let cool for 10 minutes and remove from the tray. Be careful when you are removing the nests, as to not break them.
  5. Add in some chocolate Easter eggs (I used Cadbury mini eggs).

Notes

To aid in removal of the cookies when set: Use a silicone muffin tray or line your muffin tray with cupcake liners.
