Easy Easter Treats

As the snow slowly begins to melt away, and the buds of the flowers slowly begin to unveil themselves, my heart swells. I absolutely LOVE spring. After the frigid winter, it’s always so comforting to walk outside and see color once again. My favorite part of spring is definitely Easter, and all of the festivities that come along with it! This year I decided to try out 2 of the cutest treats from Zoella’s Quick and Easy Easter Treats video, and I was so happy with the results that I had to share!

For the Cadbury Pastries you will need:

-1 Box (2 rolls) Puff Pastry

-Cadbury eggs (you can use any type)

-1 Large egg

-To start off, preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit, while your oven is warming up, get your puff pastry out of the freezer, because you will want this to be soft so you are able to cut it.

-Unwrap all of your Cadbury eggs, but then place them in the freezer, because you will want these COMPLETELY frozen.

-Begin to cut out your puff pastry into triangles, and wrap the Cadbury eggs the way you would create “pigs in a blanket”. Making sure to have all of the edges sealed, so the chocolate won’t melt out.

-After all of your eggs are wrapped, beat your large egg, and brush the tops of each pastry so they will turn golden brown.

-Put in the oven for 15-20 minutes, and let cool before eating!

For the Easter Egg Nests you will need:

-6 Shredded Wheat Squares (Large)

-10oz Dark Chocolate

-Cadbury Mini Eggs

-Cupcake wrappers

-On a double boiler pan, melt 10oz of dark chocolate

-Crush up all of the shredded wheat, and put in a large bowl

-Once the chocolate is fully melted, combine it with the crushed up shredded wheat, and stir thoroughly

-Once combined, scoop into the cupcake wrappers, and place 2 mini eggs on top to make it appear as a “nest”
