These Reese’s Chocolate Egg Nests made my little guys so happy! They are delicious and a mix of all of our favorite things, chocolate, peanut butter, marshmallows and Rice Krispies! They are so adorable too, right? My youngest, Vaughn, asked me if he could have his friends over so that he could give them some of the nests. It was so cute!
I took a heaping tablespoon of the mixture and formed it into a ball and then used my knuckle to form the indent to make the nests. I thought it would be fun to have the kids help but it was pretty warm so they helped with the chocolate eggs.

- I buttered my hands and grabbed a heaping tablespoonful and rolled it into a ball.

Thanks Gloria! I made them when we were going to dinner at a friend’s house so I could give them away. I had to keep a few back but wanted to make sure I didn’t eat them all. 🙂
