nesting...

well, creating "noodle nests" that is...
one of the children's favorites they look forward to (and ask for!) every Easter!

a simple little treat, created with:

24 paper baking cups
3 T. butter or margarine
3 T. creamy peanut butter
3 C. mini marshmallows
1 (12oz.) bag chow mein noodles
jelly beans
24 marshmallow chicks

Melt margarine over low heat. Gradually stir in peanut butter, then slowly
add marshmallows. Stir until mixture is melted and smooth.

Remove mixture from heat. Add noodles and stir until noodles are coated.

Spoon mixture into paper lined muffin tins and shape to form nests.

When nests are cool, you may add jelly bean "eggs"...

 and of course a little chick too!

Enjoy!
&
Happy "Nesting"!

Many Blessings!
Jill

  1. Very cute! Sadly, most of those ingredients we can't even get on this side of the world. The one supermarket I could rely on to have things from the States had a fire in their warehouse and lost many products. They just have never recovered or haven't replaced those items that I used to find with ease. Wonder if they will even have Easter items this year since their Valentines candy was slim pickens. :/ Have a great weekend. Tammy
