I recommend spraying your bowls and spatulas with non-stick cooking spray.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Spray the cupcake tins with cooking spray (you'll need 16 to 18 cups).<\/p>\n Add the Cocoa Krispies to a large, greased bowl and set aside.<\/p>\n Place the marshmallows and butter in a microwave-safe bowl.\u00a0 Microwave for 1 minute on high. Stir, and microwave for at additional 30 second intervals, if needed. Stir until very smooth.<\/p>\n Pour the mixture over the cereal and mix very well with a greased spatula.<\/p>\n Scoop 3 to 4 tablespoons of the cereal treats into a cup on the cupcake tray. Pat down and use a tablespoon to make a divot in the center. It helps to grease your fingers with a bit of cooking spray or water.<\/p>\n Fill your tray and chill to set the treats, about 1 hour.<\/p>\n Use a spoon to scoop a nest from the tray and top with Easter candy.<\/p>\n Makes 16 Rice Krispie nests.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n You may of course also make the treats on the stove top.<\/p>\n Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium-low heat and add the marshmallows.<\/p>\n Continue to melt over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture is very smooth. Pour the mixture over the Rice Krispies cereal in the bowl and follow the instructions above.<\/p>\n <\/p>\nhow to make Rice Krispie treats Easter nests<\/h2>\n
