Easter is right around the corner, which means you need some easter dessert ideas for the dessert table! These simple bird nest cookies are quick and require no baking to make. They are the perfect dessert to make with kids or serve on Easter Sunday.
These bird nest cookies are crunchy, sweet, and festive. My favorite has to be the combination of different textures and flavors with the shredded wheats, chocolate eggs, peanut butter and sweetened coconut. These are flavors that I wasn’t sure how well they would taste together, but they work so well! Let’s get into this recipe…
