Bird Nest Cookies

Today I would like to share another one of my favorite family recipes with you. This is not really a holiday treat but all the same is absolutely delicious and very easy to make. This is also a dessert, called Birds Nest Cookies. They are a crunchy chocolate cookie that look like a cute little bird's nest. All the ingredients you will need are: 1 bag chocolate chips, 1 bag butterscotch chips, 1 bag Chow lo main noddles, and 1 cup peanut M&M's. The peroration is also very easy for this. First you need to melt down the chocolate, & butterscotch chips in a medium sauce pan. Stirring until consistent color and texture. Second pour the entire bag of lo main noodles in to a large mixing bowl. Pour the melted chips on top and mix until all noddles are covered completely. Then lay parchment or wax paper on to a cookie sheet. Spoon 1in round mounds of the mixture on the pan as close as needed. Use the spoon to push in the middle slightly making a hole. (Do not press all the way through the cookie.) When cookie sheet is full place in refrigerate for 25-30 min. or until chocolate has hardened. When this has happened you may fill the cookies with a few M&M's making the bird's nest seem real. Once again I hope you all get the chance to try these cookies one day I know you will enjoy them as much as I do.
