This recipe came from Nick's mom's Noodle Cluster recipe. It's simple, I just melted 1 1/2 cups each of chocolate chips and butterscotch chips together until smooth (Nick thought the recipe for the nests could use more chocolate to hold together a little better). I then added a 12 oz bag of Chow Mein Noodles and stired untill the noodles were evenly coated. The original recipe calls for nuts, but I leave those out for the nests. So once everything is stirred together I shape nests onto a piece of wax paper. Its messy and a little sticky so it can be tricky, but it's not that bad. I was able to get 13 nests from the amount of ingredients that I used. Once the nests were shaped I added in 3-5 blue malted eggs. This year I also found some bright blue caramel eggs in the bulk section at the grocery store... so pretty. Fun to make, sugary, tastey, and best of all, celebrates spring!
