Coconut Bird Nests

These whimsical chocolate-coconut nests, complete with colorful ‘eggs’, are quick to make and easy enough for kids to learn.

1 (12-ounce) package or 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 (14-ounce) package sweetened flaked coconut
1 (12-ounce) bag multi-colored candy-coated chocolate pieces

Melt chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir in flaked coconut.

Drop by tablespoonfuls onto a wax paper-lined baking sheet. Using the back of a spoon, press out a hollow to form a nest.

Divide candy-covered chocolate pieces among the nests. Chill until firm, about 10 minutes.

Makes 12.
