Butterscotch Birds’ Nests

1. 1

   Line baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

2. 2

   Place butterscotch morsels and shortening in a microwave safe bowl and on 50% power, heat for 45 seconds. Remove and stir. Return to microwave and on 50% power heat for another minute or until morsels are melted. (If you prefer, you can melt butterscotch morsels with a double boiler instead.)

3. 3

   Stir in chow mein noodles until combined.

4. 4

   Take 2-3 tablespoons of mixture and form into a ball and place on parchment paper. If you desire, using your thumb you can push down the center to fill with goodies such as M&Ms or Hershey Kisses.

5. 5

   Set aside until butterscotch hardens.

6. 6

   If desired, melt semi-sweet chocolate chip morsels and drizzle over birds' nests.
