How to Make Chocolate Covered Bird’s Nests

These nests are ready in minutes with a few easy steps.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Place the milk chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until fully melted.

Remove the bowl from the microwave and stir in the Biscoff cookie butter until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.

Fold the chow mein noodles into the chocolate mixture, stirring carefully until all the noodles are evenly coated.

Use a cookie scoop or large spoon to portion the coated noodles onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping each portion into a small nest and leaving space between them.

While the chocolate is still soft, press two or three egg-shaped candies into the center of each nest so they stick.

Allow the nests to firm up completely. You can chill them in the fridge or freezer for faster setting, or leave them at room temperature until firm.
