Chocolate Bird's Nest
Ingredients are:
Molten chocolate, half to a whole package
Six or so candy chocolate candy coated bird eggs
Ample amount of corn flakes cereal, one to two cups depending on how much chocolate you have melted
Lots of love, make it for a friend
You will need a nine inch square or round cake pan or plastic container
Directions follow:
Melt molten chocolate in double boiler
or in microwave. Be careful not to over cook.
Pour into pan
Stir in corn flakes until flakes to chocolate
ratio is about even. In other words about
the same amounts of chocolate as corn flakes
Before mixture cools and hardens
place your six eggs where you want them
Like maybe a hen had laid them there
You may study birds nests
to make this realistic. I find placing
them equidistant around over the nest
but random looking looks best.
Artistic touch will rule here
The more love you put into this
the sweeter your little nest will be

I am linked with Bjorn Rudberg at the Real Toads, It is not just about food
and with NaPoWriMo 2015, both for Day 27 of National Poem Writing Month
Bjorn's instructions are "write a poem in the form of a recipe. It can either be something we can actually using for our favorite dinners, but why not a recipe for something more abstract such as love, spring or death."
Mine is real food, but made with lots of love by lots of kids.
This makes me teeth ache just reading it! Love.
ReplyDeleteOh good, I was hoping someone would do a real recipe for real food! Sounds delicious — and you haven't left out that most important non-food ingredient: love.
ReplyDeleteIt's chocolate-it has to be good : )
ReplyDeleteOuch.. I have to go out running a 10 K or so before even smelling at this richness.
ReplyDeleteThis is a cool idea! Thanks for sharing, Jim.
ReplyDeleteHa. Oh oh-- I stay away, but it does look tempting! Thanks. k.
