Green Coconut Nests are a fun and easy Easter treat to make!

You will need:
1 pound green chocolate coating (color white chocolate
    with green food coloring)
1 (7 ounce) package flaked or shredded coconut

How to Make Green Coconut Nests:
In the top of a double boiler, melt coating over hot, not boiling, water. Add coconut and mix together well. Add very small amounts of water to coconut mixture until it thickens enough to hold shapes. Form into small nests by making mounds and then hollowing them out with the bowl of a spoon.

Fill nests with jelly beans or molded chocolates.

Put a nest in the middle of each Easter guest's dinner plate.

Makes 8 nests.
