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!

Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I am always looking for fast, easy and nutritious meals for my busy weeknight meals.  These wraps have become one of our family favorites.  We serve these with a side of wontons or potstickers to complete the meal. The filling can be made ahead of time and reheated if your day is extra busy. Bibb lettuce is our favorite, but feel free to use iceberg or even romaine for this dish. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do!

Chicken Salad Sandwiches with Fruit and Almonds

Chicken salad sandwiches seem to be the go to item for baby and bridal showers.  I wanted to make some for the baby shower, but had a dillema.   While I like the main components in the salad, I really do not like the taste of raw onions and celery.  However, I still wanted some crunch and flavor in the salad.

Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies

The name says it all. These cookies are my (and my husband's) favorite cookies! Not just your average chocolate chip cookies, these babies come out of the oven with a slightly crisp outside while still remaining soft on the inside. Use Ghiradelli Milk Chocolate Chips and you will have achieved chocolate chip cookie perfection!
