Bird Nests

These are great to make with kids.

Combine in a bowl:

3 cups of crispy rice cereal

1 cup of shredded cocount (We omitted the coconut because I do not like it.)

Mix and bring to a boil:

1/3 cup of light corn syrup

1/2 cup of brown sugar

3/4 cup of peanut butter

1 teaspoon of vanilla

Stir this into the cereal and coconut.  Let it cool.

Shape into bird nests and fill with jelly bean "eggs."

Here is the finished product.
