Bird Nest Cookies





You may have already seen this elsewhere, but I had to share it.  Afterall, Easter is nearly here - and my family makes these every year.  I wanted to share our little tradition with you.






The cookies are adorable, and they are super easy - with just three ingredients in the ingredient list.  I can literally make these in 15 minutes - which is the largest reason as to why I choose these to make every year!!







All you need to do is melt your butterscotch chips in a double boiler, or microwave.  Mix in the chow mein noodles.  Using a spoon, or your hand, make little 'nests' with the noodles on a baking sheet.  Stick 3 mini Cadbury eggs of the same color in each nest.  







If you want them to stick better, use a little melted butterscotch as glue - dip a little of the surface of the eggs in it, and stick them in the nest.
