Spring Shredded Wheat & Pretzel Nests
*1 cup Bittersweet Chocolate Chips
*1 cup Milk Chocolate Chips
*1/3 cup Peanut Butter
*5 Shredded Wheat big biscuits, broken up
*2 Cups broken Pretzels, I broke each pretzel into 3 pieces
*6 small Tart Pans, sprayed with Pam cooking spray
*Candy Eggs, for decorating
*Peeps, for decorating (I used Party Cake and Bubble Gum Peeps)
Note: I hope you can find better shaped peeps than I did.
Melt in the microwave the chocolate chips and peanut butter in a microwave bowl, start on 40 seconds and then in 20 second intervals stirring after each interval being careful not to burn the chocolate or according to your microwave. Remove mixture from the microwave and stir until melted and add shredded wheat and pretzels. Spoon mixture into Tart Pans, making a nest let them set-up/dry. Then decorate with Peeps, Candy Eggs and etc…..
Chocolate Dipped Peeps
*Peeps, cut apart with scissors
*Chocolate Almond Bark or Chocolate Chips, melted
*Sprinkles, optional, I like them to cover the sticky parts on the peep, sometimes you get lucky and get extra sprinkles in the bottom of the peep boxes.
*Wax Paper
After melting chocolate in microwave pour in a small bowl for dipping the peeps. Place dipped peeps on wax paper to dry and then add to the nests if desired.
Happy Spring!
