Easter Nests:

Step 1

Pre-heat oven to 160°C (140°C fan-forced). Line 12 x 1/3 cup capacity muffin pans with paper cases. Place butter, sugar, cocoa, milk and bi-carb in a saucepan and heat over a low flame until butter is melted. Allow to cool.

Step 2

Whisk the eggs into chocolate mixture, until well combined. Fold in the flour and coconut, mixing well. Spoon mixture between paper cases and bake for 20-22 minutes. Allow to cool.

Step 3

For the nests, place chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Stirring until melted. Add coconut and mix well. Place spoonfuls onto a lined oven tray and using the back of the spoon, make an indent in the middle. Refrigerate until chilled.

Step 4

To finish, place a coconut nest on top of each cake and fill with little Easter eggs.
