Easter Baking - Chocolate Nest with Mini Eggs

Time have travelled fast and its Easter this weekend. When this time comes Spring is finally here and look forward to the day going lighter, plants are starting to show the beginnings of new life.

When i was at school, my special English tutor let me & my cousins make cards and chocolate nest with mini eggs and get soo excited to take it home to show my mummy.

So this year, instead of getting a chocolate egg, bit of nostalgia and made these chocolate nests.
They are very easy to make - perfect way to get the kids involve and enjoy eating them.

Makes 12
Time 15mins to make (plus chilling)

Ingredients:

100g Butter
1Tbspn Cocoa Powder
50g Milk Chocolate Buttons
75g Golden Syrup
4 Shredded Wheat
36 Mini Chocolate Eggs

Method:

1)Put the butter into a medium bowl, then add the cocoa powder, chocolate buttons and golden syrup.
Microwave on hight for 1 minute 30 seconds, or until melted, then stir to mix everything together.
2) Hold 1 Shredded Wheat over the bowl and squeeze in your hand to crumble it in. Repeat with the oher 3 Shredded Wheat. Stir to mix evenly.
3)Line the 12 bun fairycake tin with paper cases, and put a generous tablespoonful of mixture into each of the paper cases. Press the centre of each nest with a spoon (or fingers) to make a slight dip, then arrange 3 mini chocolate eggs in each of the dip. Chill for 30 minutes before eating.


Happy Easter to everyone!
