I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Easter Nests

Jazz up your Easter table! If you've ever made Rice Krispie squares then you can make these easy Easter nests.

Ingredients:

2 cups mini marshmallows (or 3/4 bag large marshmallows)

1/4 cup butter

4 cups chow mein noodles

 

Spray muffin tin with cooking oil.

In a large pot melt the butter on medium heat, then add the marshmallows and stir until melted. Remove from heat and stir in the chow mein noodles to coat. Spoon some of the mixture into a muffin tin. Spray the back of an ice cream scoop with oil and use it to shape an indentation in the noodles. If you need to use your hands to help shape the nest either spray them with oil or just dampen them with a little water.

Place in the freezer for 45-60 minutes. Then, using a small plastic spatula or knife, pop them out of the tin. They can be filled with little goodies then wrapped as small gifts or table markers for your Easter dinner.
