Chocolate Bird Nests

This post may contain affiliate or advertiser links. Please review my disclosure policy.
These little bird nests are so cute and they were so easy to make! We made them for our bird lessons.


This is what you need:
- 6 tsp honey
- 6 tsp butter
- 4 oz semisweet chocolate
- 3 cups cornflakes
- small round candies
- cupcake papers

Here is what we did:
-Stir the honey, butter, and chocolate (we used chocolate chips) in a pot over low heat until melted.
- Remove from heat and stir in cornflakes until well coated.
- Place cupcake papers in a cupcake baking tray and add the chocolate flake mixture to each by pressing against the sides and making a hole in the middle.
- Let the nests set and hardened for at least two hours. One dry and hard, remove the paper wrapper and add the candies for the eggs (we used M&Ms)! That's it!!!

I got this super cute idea from I Can Cook: Fun, Easy, Step-by-Step Recipes.

  1. What an AWESOME idea! I keep seeing so many things like this on blogs, and I am terrified I won't remember them when my daughter is old enough to try them out!

    I am starting a new "mom's community" blog with a friend in March. Please let me know if you'd ever be interested in guest posting; I think you have just what we need!
