Nutella Macaroon Egg Nests
Coconut Macaroon Nutella Nests are a fun and easy treat for Easter and spring! You will love the Nutella filling!
Spring has sprung and Easter is right around the corner, so today I am sharing a recipe for, Coconut Macaroon Nutella Nests. These are a one pot wonder and so easy to make.
Ingredients
2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk
1 large egg white
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 1/2 cups desiccated coconut
1 cup Nutella
Chocolate Mini eggs
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, stir together the sweetened condensed milk, egg white, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until combined. Add in the coconut and mix well.
With a spoon, scoop up about 2 Tablespoons of the dough and place the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Form the macaroons into the shape of a bird nest. Press down the centre with your thumb.
Bake cookies for 17 to 20 minutes, or until slightly golden brown. Remove from the oven and press your thumb down in the centre of the nests again. Cool the macaroons on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes or until they are firm and set. Remove with a spatula onto a cooling rack. Cool completely.
Place about a tablespoon of Nutella in the centre of each nest. Place 3 mini eggs in the centre of the nest. Finish decorating the nests and serve.
Note-you can make these 2-3 days in advance. Store in an air tight container.
Enjoy! x
