3 c. miniature marshmallows

3 T. butter

2 T. peanut butter

1 can  (5 oz.) chow mein noodles

Pastel jelly beans or M&M's

12 pastel paper cupcake liners

 

In a heavy saucepan over low heat, cook marshmallows, butter, and peanut butter until marshmallows are melted: still until blended. Remove from heat; stir in chow mein noodles. Divide into 12 mounds on waxed paper lined pan. With lightly buttered hands, quickly shape each mound into a nest. Fill with Jelly beans or M&M's. Trim 1/2 inch from each cupcake liner: place nests in liners. Store in  an airtight container.
