Ingredients

200 grams Milk chocolate
100 grams Crispy rice cereal
36 pieces Mini candy eggs
2 tablespoons Butter
2 tablespoons Golden syrup (or light corn syrup)

Directions

Step 1

Line a 12-count muffin tin with paper cupcake liners and set aside.

Step 2

Break the milk chocolate into small pieces and place them in a heatproof bowl.

Step 3

Add the butter and golden syrup to the bowl with the chocolate.

Step 4

Melt the mixture gently over a saucepan of simmering water (or in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between) until smooth and fully combined.

Step 5

Remove the bowl from the heat and fold in the crispy rice cereal until fully coated in the chocolate mixture.

Step 6

Spoon the mixture evenly into the prepared cupcake liners, pressing down slightly to create a nest shape in the center of each one.

Step 7

Place 2-3 mini candy eggs in the center of each nest.

Step 8

Let the nests set completely at room temperature for 1-2 hours or refrigerate for about 30 minutes until firm.

Step 9

Once set, remove the nests from the muffin tin and peel off the paper liners before serving.
