Chocolate Peanut Butter Birds Nest Cookies

Looking for a fun easter treat to make with the kids?  These are so cute and come together in a jiffy.  With only 3 ingredients, ok 4 if you count the eggs, these couldn't be easier.  Oh, and delicious, of course.







Chocolate Peanut Butter Birds Nest Cookies
modified from Skip to my Lou

 Ingredients:

1/4 pkg milk chocolate chips
1/2 pkg semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup peanut butter
1/2 pkg Chow Mein Noodles
Cadbury Mini Eggs

Directions:

In a large microwave safe bowl combine chocolate chips (I like Ghiradelli)  and peanut butter.  Microwave on high for 1 minute.  Stir well.  Microwave for another 30 seconds and stir till smooth.  Add Chow Mein Noodles and stir to coat.  Drop by spoonfuls onto parchment or waxed paper and make an indentation for the eggs.  Use the spoon to reshape the nest if necessary.  Place 2 or 3 mini eggs in the nest.  Place in fridge for an hour or let sit out for several hours to harden.  Enjoy!

Bakery style Strawberry Muffins

New recipe! Can you even believe it?! Kirsti and I decided we need to get back in the habit of sharing our favorite recipes by sharing at least one a month so here you go:   I’m starting off with these scrumptious strawberry muffins. Extra large and fluffy, these muffins are bursting with strawberry bits and topped with the most delicious strawberry glaze. If you end up with extra glaze, go ahead and drizzle some extra.  No judgement here :)   Even if you already love the previous strawberry muffins on our blog, you need to try these- they are the only ones I'll be making from here on out.  They're that good!

Chocolate Covered Cream Balls

Several years ago, I sampled a Milk Chocolate Coconut at See's Candies.  It was love at first bite.  Ever since then I have made a mandatory stop every time I went into the mall to get one of these delicious chocolates.  I love them so much !  However, there are two things I didn't like about them.  1) I had to go to the mall to get them, and 2) they are SO expensive.  I think the last time I was there I paid about 75 cents for 1 chocolate.

Healthier Chocolate Banana Muffins

 I know, I know.  We already have like 5 banana muffins posted on this blog.  I have put off posting this recipe because of that fact, but here's the thing.  While those muffins are all delicious and great in their own way, when I have ripe bananas you know I'm either making these muffins or banana bread.  More often, these muffins because they are perfect for a grab and go snack or breakfast.  My family LOVES these muffins! They have such a deep chocolate flavor and are so moist.  What my family doesn't think about, but I love, are that these muffins are healthier than your average muffin.  They are made with whole wheat flour, coconut oil, greek yogurt for extra protein, and have less sugar that most other muffins.  These are best warm (they can be reheated in the microwave for 10 seconds) and those bites with melted chocolate chips are the absolute best!
