Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Spread the shredded coconut onto a baking sheet for toasting. Place in oven for 5-10 minutes, until coconut is a light golden brown color. Make sure to stay in the kitchen watch the coconut, as it can easily go from toasted to burnt. Alternately, you can toast the coconut in a pan on the stove-top.
- Let toasted coconut cool on baking sheet while melting chocolate. Add chocolate chips to a microwave-safe bowl and melt in 20-30 second increments until the chocolate is melted. Add cooled coconut and melted chocolate into a large bowl and toss to combine. Use a spoon or ice cream scoop to scoop about 2-3 Tablespoons of the coconut chocolate mixture onto a piece of parchment and shape into a nest. Top each nest with 2-3 eggs. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
- Let nests set at room temperature or place in the fridge or freezer to speed up the process. Store leftover nests in an airtight container at room temp for 4-5 days or in the fridge for longer storage. If you store them in the fridge, let sit for about 5-10 minutes before eating.

COCONUT MERINGUE NESTS | SOUTHERN LIVING
From southernliving.com
- Preheat oven to 200°F with rack in lower third position. Spread about ⅛ teaspoon of the Basic Meringue into each corner of 2 unrimmed baking sheets. Line each baking sheet with parchment paper; press into meringue to hold parchment in place. Set aside.
- If desired, for a speckled-bird’s nest appearance, gently stir espresso granules into remaining Basic Meringue in bowl. (If omitting, place meringue in piping bag.) Transfer mixture to a large (about 18-inch) piping bag fitted with a ¾-inch open star piping tip (such as Ateco 829). Pipe meringue into 3-inch spiral rounds, starting each in the center and spiraling outward, spaced at least 1 inch apart on prepared baking sheets. (Outer edges of rounds should be slightly raised to resemble nests.) You should have 24 meringues total.
- Bake in preheated oven until dry and no longer sticky, 1 ½ to 2 ½ hours. Turn oven off; let meringues cool completely in oven until crisp, at least 2 hours or up to 12 hours.
- Spoon coconut into centers of nests (about 1 ½ teaspoons each). Top with candies. Store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.
