Cupcake nests with Nutella and Mini eggs


With the long weekend ahead of us I'm certain most of us will be baking something... I'm a cupcake fiend so went with the easy option and decided to make some cute cupcake nests with Nutella and a few Mini eggs popped on the top for decoration.

For my long time readers I'm certain you are aware by now I don't really use any fancy recipes so this is really easy to make I used a standard vanilla recipe for cupcakes which can be found here.

For the 'nests' I melted Nutella in the microwave for around 10 seconds and mixed it in with some Shreddies. (You can use crushed Wheetabix, Shredded wheat or even bran flakes. I don't really think it makes much of a difference once you have added in your Nutella.) 

I then spreaded some Whole Earth lightly whipped chocolate hazelnut spread over the top of the cupcake (you could use nutella) and this helped the 'nest' stick to the cupcake better. Finally, I added 3 mini eggs to the top of each cupcake.

I think I need to try some more fancier baking recipes but do let me know what you think of these? 

Hope you enjoyed this post and happy long weekend!
