Easter Nests - a classic, people have been making them at least as far back as I remember in the 70s, and they're still just as delicious as ever.
We used chowmein noodles and buttescotch chips. Most people use 2 bags of chips to 1 bag of chowmein noodles but that's way too sweet and goopy for us. We prefer 1 bag of chips and most of a bag of noodles.
Microwave the chips in a large heat-proof bowl.
Stir in the noodles.
Drop spoonfuls into lined cupcake pans.
Make a depression in the middle.
Add candy - jelly beans or cadbury mini-eggs are great for this.
