Melt the Chocolate and Peanut Butter

Ask an adult to help you put peanut butter and chocolate in a bowl. Use the microwave at 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until it is smooth. You can also melt it together on the stove. Make sure to stir so the chocolate doesn’t burn.

Build a Nest

Put a spoonful of the chocolate mixture into each cupcake liner. Use the back of a spoon to make a bird nest shape. Put the cupcake pan in the freezer for 15 minutes to make the chocolate hard. Take the nests out of the cupcake liners.
