Easy Easter Treats: Birds Nest I decided to make these treat for the kids for Easter. These are a chow main treat done loose and deconstructed. I choose to do them more deconstructed. Traditionally there chow main noodles are tossed in melted butterscotch chips. I like chocolate so I make a loose nest. My daughter helped to make these Easy Easter Treats nests. I am not sure if they will last it to Easter. They are so easy I made batch in about 20 minutes.
