Next, have your students place a small handful of chow mein noodles into each section of the muffin pan.

Then come the butterscotch and chocolate chips (try to make sure your students put a similar amount of each).

Once each section is filled with chow mein noodles and chips, place the pan on a griddle to melt the chips (you're going for mostly melted, not runny). Have your students help you watch to see how long it takes! Then remove the pan from the griddle and allow it to cool for a bit. After cooling, have your students place a candy egg in each 'nest.' Super cute and delicious!!
