    Recipe Introduction


    These candies are so cute and are also easy enough for small children to help prepare. Use tiny colored jelly beans or Easter colored candy-coated chocolate pieces to decorate nests.

    List of Ingredients




    Easter Egg Nests



    drops green food coloring
    1/2 teas milk
    1 1/3 cups flaked coconut
    6 oz white confectioners' coating

    Recipe



    In a small bowl, mix food coloring with milk; add
    coconut and mix until evenly tinted; set aside.

    Melt confectioners' coating over a double boiler or in the microwave, stirring every 15 to 30 seconds until smooth. Mix with coconut mixture and place by spoonfuls on waxed paper. Shape mixture like a bird's nest, making a slight indentation in the center of each one.
    Cool completely and decorate by placing candies in the center of each nest.


    Note: Candies can be secured into the nests with a dap of white icing.
