Easter Nest Cookies

This will be our very first Easter together and we have been trying to make sure we make it a memorable one. We have been reading about each of the days of Holy Week and eating Cadbury Eggs nonstop for days.

 I got this recipe from one of my favorite women/bakers of all time. Her name is Valerie Johnson. She baked cookies for my "cookies & milk" wedding reception and has coined the term "happies" for her wonderfully packaged treats which put a smile on anybody's face! How cute is that? So I made a good 50 cookies yesterday, and we've been smiling ever since.




Our suggestion: Package some of these cookies & anonymously drop them off on someones doorstep who has made this a more meaningful Easter season for you. 


We chose to treat a neighbor who had inspired us with honest words. 
Below is a little snippet of our experience.



Enjoy your weekends,

I&J

  2. Really glad to see that Chon can video record and drive at the same time. So talented.

    But f'realz, great work! You didn't make them with candy eggs? Send that recipe my way. :)

  3. For some reasy the candy coated deal seemed like it would take away from the delicious chocolate flavor, plus when you use the pure chocolate ones they melt on the bottom & mold to the nests. It's on it's way to you!
