Ingredients

3 cups miniature marshmallows
0.25 cup creamy peanut butter
3 tablespoons butter
4 cups crispy chow mein noodles
cooking spray
40 candy-coated milk chocolate eggs

Instructions

Combine marshmallows, peanut butter, and butter in a saucepan. Cook and stir over medium heat until marshmallows are fully melted, approximately 5 minutes.
Transfer chow mein noodles to a large bowl. Pour the marshmallow mixture over the noodles, ensuring they are thoroughly coated.
Lightly spray your hands with cooking spray or coat them with butter to prevent sticking. Scoop the noodle mixture from the bowl using an ice cream scoop, forming it into balls and creating a hollow center to resemble a nest. Carefully arrange 4 chocolate eggs into each nest.
