How To Make easter m+m crispy bird nest's

  • Step 1
    Combine the marshmallow, peanut butter, melted butter together until well mixed. Stir well.
  • Step 2
    Add the chow mein noodles and crushed m+m's. Mix well.
  • Step 3
    Using greased fingers form into a nest. Place on greased cookie sheet or parchment lined sheet. Place peanut M+M's in a nest as eggs. Let set until firm. Enjoy!
  • Step 4
    I usually make a double batch. One pound bag of M+M's of plain and peanut will be enough for a double batch. These make such a pretty centerpiece on the table or buffet!! Enjoy!
