Chocolate Nest Bowls
with Crispy Rice Cereal

This is a great idea for an edible bowl
to serve ice cream or a cold dessert in.
The creative possibilities are endless.
I make these and put fresh fruit in them.
The kids really like them and adults as well.

Ingredients:
1 package (11 1/2 ounces) milk chocolate
4 ounces Bakers German sweet or semi-sweet chocolate
6 cups crispy rice cereal (such as Rice Krispies)
Mini chocolate eggs, jelly beans, or other candy to decorate

Directions:
Place chocolate in a large microwave-proof bowl
and microwave for 2 minutes to melt chocolate; stir well.
Add crispy rice cereal and mix to coat well.
Line small bowls (such as 6-ounce size custard cups)
with plastic food wrap. Place about 1/2 cup into each bowl
and use the spoon to roughly make it the shape of a nest.
Place bowls into refrigerator to set chocolate, about 1 hour.
Remove plastic wrap from nests and fill with candy or dessert.
