Chocolate Nests Recipes

CHOCOLATE BIRDS' NESTS

Steps:

• Melt 8 ounces chopped semisweet chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring. Remove the bowl from the pan and stir in 2 cups canned potato sticks. Coat a 6-cup muffin pan with cooking spray and scoop some of the chocolate mixture into the cups; make an indentation in each to form nests. Chill until set, at least 3 hours. Fill with marcona almonds.

CHOCOLATE NESTS

Steps:

• Melt the chocolate and coconut oil in a bowl in the microwave 2 to 3 minutes. Coat the pretzel sticks in the chocolate and arrange them into nests on a parchment or wax paper-lined surface. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to set, then add the chocolate egg candies.

CHOCOLATE EASTER NESTS

• Melt chocolate bars and the German sweet chocolate over low heat.
• Add coconut and cornflakes.
• Stir until coconut and cornflakes are covered with chocolate.
• Drop mixture by Tablespoons onto wax paper.
• Shape each Tablespoon of mixture into a nest.
• Make an indentation in the middle of the nest.

NO-BAKE CHOCOLATE EASTER NESTS

Steps:

• Line 2 baking sheets with foil. Lightly coat with nonstick spray.
• Scrape condensed milk into a medium saucepan or microwave-safe bowl; add chocolate chips.
• Place over low heat and stir often, or microwave on high 2 to 4 minutes, stirring every minute, until chips melt and mixture is blended and smooth.
• Put noodles into a large bowl, pour on chocolate mixture and toss with a rubber spatula until noodles are coated.
• Drop generous 1/4 - 1/2 cupfulls on prepared baking sheets.
• Lightly spray fingertips with nonstick spray.
• Form mounds into nests making a depression in the center & fill with candies.
• Let nests cool to set.
• Store loosely covered at room temperature for up to 3 days.

EASY EASTER NESTS

Steps:

• Melt the chocolate in a small bowl placed over a pan of barely simmering water. Pour the chocolate over the shredded wheat and stir well to combine.
• Spoon the chocolate wheat into 12 cupcake cases and press the back of a teaspoon in the centre to create a nest shape. Place 3 mini chocolate eggs on top of each nest. Chill the nests in the fridge for 2 hrs until set.

CRISPY CHOCOLATE COCONUT NESTS

Steps:

• I've estimated the bag size but you want to have approximately equal amounts of each ingredient.
• Spread the shredded coconut in a baking pan and toast in the oven at 400° until a shade darker than golden brown (maybe 5 minutes or so I think- I never time it, just go by the color really.) Melt chocolate chips in microwave, stirring occasionally until melted.
• (Don't over cook these or the chocolate will burn and become permanently solid) Stir coconut and chocolate together until all coconut is covered.
• Drop by small spoonfuls onto wax paper and refrigerate until solid.
• --I don't like semisweet chocolate in this recipe.
• Milk or dark chocolate tastes better in my opinion, but use whatever you like.
