I found these Easter Smarties at The Reject Shop recently, I thought the coloured eggs would look really cute nestled into a rice bubble nest. I’ve made these prior to easter so I can share them with you, but I think it could be a lovely treat to have over easter.
You could decorate the nests with anything really:
- Mini Easter Eggs
- Chocolate Easter Egg
- Strawberry
- Dried Apricot, to look like a little tart
- Caramel
Easter Rice Bubble Nests
Ingredients
- 200g white chocolate melts
- 2 cups Rice Bubbles
- Smarties Easter Eggs
- Spray oil, for greasing tin
Instructions
- Lightly grease a 24 hole mini muffin tin
- Place rice bubbles into large bowl
- Microwave the chocolate on medium for 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds.
- Ensure that the chocolate is completely melted
- Pour the chocolate onto the rice bubbles and stir until all combined
- Spoon heaped tablespoon of mixture into muffin tin
- Working fast as the mixture will start to set, mould the mixture around the hole to form a basket shape
- Add eggs to decorate
Notes
If your baskets have started to harden up, you can melt a little more chocolate and dip the eggs into the chocolate and place in basket. Dipping the chocolate will keep the eggs still in the basket.
