This year I received a special request to make Cadbury Creme Egg cupcakes. So I made chocolate cupcakes with a Creme Egg inside each one, with two-toned buttercream icing and a mini chocolate egg on top. But despite my massive sweet tooth, they were still far too sweet for my taste!
I love anything with peanut butter so I much preferred the mini Easter egg nests, which I made by simply nesting mini Cadbury Easter eggs in chocolate spiders. They make for a cute - and super easy! - Easter treat.
Mini Easter Egg Nests
(Makes 12)
1 x 100g pkt fried noodles
2 tbsps peanut butter (crunchy or smooth)
200g milk chocolate
36 mini Easter eggs
1. Prepare a baking tray (or large container) by covering in baking paper.
2. Melt chocolate and peanut butter together in a heat proof bowl. This can be done gradually in the microwave, 20 seconds at a time, or over a saucepan of simmering water. Mix until smooth and completely melted.
3. Stir in noodles until they are thoroughly coated.
4. Spoon about 1 tbsp of mixture onto tray, and press down into the centre so it resembles a little nest.
5. Add 3 mini eggs to the middle, and then repeat with the rest of the mixture.
6. Refrigerate and enjoy!
Note: These could also be adapted for a baby shower by using either a single blue or pink egg.
