Description

Fun treats for Springtime. You can use vanilla flavored candy coating instead of white chocolate, if you like.

Ingredients

2 cups chow mein noodles
2 cups crushed cornflakes cereal
16 (1 ounce) squares white chocolate
⅓ cup chocolate covered raisins

Directions

1. Place a sheet of waxed paper or foil on a large cookie sheet. In a large bowl, combine the noodles and the cereal and set aside.
2. Melt white chocolate or vanilla candy-coating in a double boiler over hot water (or in the microwave). Remove from heat and pour over noodles and cereal.
3. To form nests, mound 2 tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared cookie sheet. With the back of a teaspoon, make an indentation in the center of each mound. Press 3 or 4 candies in the center of each "nest". Allow to set at room temperature until firm.
