Chocolate Nests and Cinnamon Nests

These were a huge hit at the party/ Easter Egg Hunt last weekend! I would have liked to make the nests themselves just a bit bigger so the Peep didn't hide most of it, but they were a great first try! I got a lot of help from my little chef! Ok, so mostly help eating them, but hey, everyone needs a taste tester right?!

I made a batch of chocolate with marshmallows and Cheerios and a batch of cinnamon chips with marshmallows and Cheerios. I figured this way it was a good variety and used up a few of the cinnamon chips I went a little crazy buying :D

Well here they are! I hope you enjoy!
Please let me know what you think, I always love to hear from you!

I also included some pics of the Marshmallow Pops I made for the party, they were gone in a matter of minutes!






taking a little break from baking to play with sprinkles! 







Happy Baking

Easter is coming up so quickly

I'm on the search today for a cute/easy recipe to take to our Mom's group Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday. I have extra marshmallows and pink chocolate left from our pink party a few weeks back and decided to make more marshmallow pops, but wanted to bring something else too.

After a conversation I had with my husband about childhood snacks and finding a few great tutorials on Pinterest, I will be making chocolate nests with eggs! They are so cute, I can't wait to take some pics to share!

I found two recipes, one calling for butterscotch chips and one for chocolate chips so I think I'll try a batch of each. I will share how it all turns out and hopefully some pictures of the party too!

For now, here's a picture of my marshmallow pops from the pink party to tide you over!
