CHOCOLATE EASTER NESTS TASTY ALTERNATIVES

Instead of oats use, fried noodles, dried chow mein noodles, shredded wheat, rice krispies or cornflakes to make Corn Flake Cookies.
Alternatively, place the nests a muffin tin with cupcake cases
Use white chocolate chips, jelly beans, mini Easter eggs, candy eggs or other Easter candy inside of the nests instead of mini chocolate eggs
Use dark chocolate or milk chocolate in place of the cocoa and coconut oil for a more indulgent treat.
