Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add milk, sugar, and cocoa and stir to combine while bringing to a boil. Boil for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove pan from heat. Add in peanut butter and vanilla, and stir until smooth. Stir in oats, chopped pretzels, and salt.
  • Drop mixture by spoonfuls onto waxed paper and form into bird nest shapes. Press down the center with your thumb so there will be a place for the candies. Let the nests cool completely. Place egg candies in the center of the nests. Serve.
  • Note-you can store the nests on in an air-tight container on the counter for up to 4 days. Add the egg candies when you are ready to serve.
