When I think of Easter, I don’t just think of Easter day. I think about it as a season of getting together with friends, parties, Easter egg hunts, and more. The weather is starting to warm up and everything starts to bloom reminding me of new life. Here are a few favorites that I like to serve when I am having a crowd over.
STOUFFER’S® just came out with 3 new flavors of their Mac Cups, Pepperoni Pizza Mac Cups, Chili Cheese Mac Cups, and Buffalo-style Mac Cups. These are great when you are feeding a crowd because everyone can pick their own flavor of Mac and Cheese. All varieties are made with a 100% real cheddar cheese sauce and come in packs of 2.
I found these in the freezer section of Walmart, after browsing the Easter aisle and picking up a bag NESTLÉ® BUTTERFINGER® NestEggs.
Of course I couldn’t leave the Easter aisle with just one bag of candy, so I also grabbed some NESTLÉ CRUNCH® NestEggs, NESTLÉ® Assorted Minis, and NESTLÉ® Assorted Golden Eggs. Delicious treats everybunny will love! Seek out some of your favorites and add to your Easter fun. The NestEggs are Egg shaped milk chocolates. Perfect for Easter Egg hunts and baskets.
I decided to make my famous no bake cookies into little Nests to hold a few of the NestEggs. I made some with the BUTTERFINGER® NestEggs and others with the CRUNCH® NestEggs. I think they turned out really cute. They are pretty delicious too!
