2. Whilst the chocolate is melting, crumble the shredded wheat into pieces so that it looks like straw.
3. Combine the crushed shredded wheat with the melted chocolate.
4. Spoon the mixture into the paper cake cases and shape into nest shapes.
5. Once the chocolate has set, place 2-3 mini eggs into your chocolate nests.

Place the Easter nests onto paper plates and wrap in cling film so that the young people can take these home.

Easter Bonnet Biscuits
