Easter Bird Nests

Thanks to my Aunt, we were able to make delicious Easter bird nests. We were supposed to make them out of pretzel sticks, but here in China, it is very hard to find them. Then my mom thought that it would be a good idea to make the nests out of Chocolate Haystacks. So this morning, I started making the haystacks. They were really easy to make, but they took a long time as well; plus, it was hard to stand over a hot stove for any long period of time during a Chinese spring. But eventually they were done and we were able to put take them out and form bird nests with them. Then we put the little chocolate eggs that my Aunt sent into the middle of the haystack. They turned out really good, and since it is not actually Easter until tomorrow, we are saving them until then. Hopefully they will taste as good as they look!
