How to Make Bird Nests
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and eggs. Mix well.
- Add the flour, salt, and vanilla extract. Stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Grease a 6-cup or 12-cup muffin tin.
- Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about halfway.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. (Adjust baking time depending on your muffin tin size and oven).
- Let the nests cool in the tin for a few minutes before carefully removing them.
- While the nests are still warm, gently press Cadbury Mini Eggs or other candies into the tops to create a bird's nest effect. You can also add a small chocolate bird or candy to complete the look!
- Let the nests cool completely before serving or packaging them for gifts. For an extra-special touch, wrap individual nests in cellophane bags tied with ribbon.
