Get ready to be the star of your Easter gathering with these adorable and incredibly easy Bird’s Nest Brownie Bites. They are the perfect sweet treat for kids and adults alike, and they are sure to impress everyone with their cute and festive appearance.
Ingredients:
- 1 box (48 squares) milk chocolate baking squares
- 1 (14.5 oz) package sweetened shredded coconut
- 1 bag (10 oz) mini Robin chocolate eggs (or your favorite Easter candy)
Instructions:
Making the Brownie Nests:
- Melt the chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the milk chocolate squares on medium power, stirring every 30 seconds, until smooth and melted.
- Shape the nests: Using a spoon, drop heaping tablespoons of melted chocolate onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Use the back of the spoon to spread the chocolate into circular shapes, creating slight indentations in the center for the “eggs”.
- Chill and harden: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate is firm.
Adding the Finishing Touches:
- Decorate with coconut: Gently press shredded coconut around the edges of the hardened chocolate nests, creating the “bird’s nest” effect.
- Add the “eggs”: Place 2-3 mini Robin chocolate eggs (or your favorite Easter candy) in the center of each nest.
Tips:
- For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate baking squares instead of milk chocolate.
- If you don’t have mini Robin chocolate eggs, you can use any other type of Easter candy or even jelly beans.
- To make the nests ahead of time, you can store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- Get creative with the “eggs”! You can use different colors and types of candy to add variety to your bird’s nests.
These Bird’s Nest Brownie Bites are the perfect way to celebrate Easter and add a touch of whimsy to your dessert table. They are so easy to make, and they are sure to be a crowd-pleaser!
