Coconut Bird Nest - Great Easter Treat and Fun to Make!

For all the coconut lovers out there I found this recipe at Heavenly Savings & Homemaking and I can't resist quick, easy and Coconut recipes.  This one has 3 ingredients.  That's right, no joke!

Easter Coconut Bird Nests

Ingredients:

1 Bag Sweetened Shredded Coconut
1 Can Condensed Milk
1 Bag Mini Robin Egg Candies


Preheat oven 350°


Directions:
Combine Milk and Coconut
Drop by spoonful onto lined baking sheet
Press Center to form indentation for eggs ( I used the end of an Ice Cream Scoop)
Bake for around 10 minutes or until coconut is toasted
Remove from oven




TIP:

When you see your nests spread in the pan like mine....don't freak out like I did!  I think my coconut to milk ratio must have not been right or my coconut wasn't dry enough.  But I dealt with it.  When you pull the out of the oven, let then cool just a minute or two. With your fingers press the edges toward the middle and make your egg spot again if necessary. 

After cooling for around 15-20 minutes place your candy eggs in the basket!
