Bri and I made bird's next cookies earlier today as part of our Easter weekend celebration. Making these cookies takes me back to being a kid and making them with my sister....which is one of many fun holiday memories I have with her.
The recipe we followed (we modified from one online) calls for:
• 1 bag semi sweet chocolate morsels
• 1 bag of dark chocolate morsels
• 1 bag of chow mein noodles (we had to get these at Stop and Shop, aisle 4)
• 1 bag of Cadbury eggs (which were harder to get this year...maybe because of tariffs or Maga sentiment about the fact they incorrect keep re-posting that Cadbury dropped the word Easter from its products?)
We put the morsels, half bag at a time, in the large purple mixing bowl. We heated them up in 30 second increments in the microwave, stirring them. After about three heating sessions, we added the last portions of the bag and heated them up some more. Perfect!
We slowly added the bag of chow mein noodles and Bri stirred. Then, I put wax paper on two cookie sheets and we set out the cookies to harden!!
Voila...a tasty treat!!! And here is the link to the recipe we used (the picture above is from the website): https://www.dinneratthezoo.com/birds-nest-cookies/
