By barbgreenfield

Ingredients

• 4 C. chow mein noodles
• 1/2 C. light corn syrup
• 1/2 C. sugar
• 3/4 C. JIF® Creamy or Crunchy Peanut Butter SMUCKER'S® Jelly Beans or other egg-shaped candies

Preparation

Step 1

Directions
In a large mixing bowl, use your hands to break noodles into smaller pieces. In a large saucepan, combine sugar and syrup. Cook over medium heat, until sugar is melted and edges begin to bubble. Add JIF® Peanut Butter and stir until smooth. Pour mixture over noodles and toss to coat. Carefully test for temperature. With slightly buttered hands, form mixture into tight balls, using approximately 1/4 C. of mixture per ball. Make an indentation in the center of each ball to resemble a bird's nest. Place on waxed paper and allow to cool completely. Place two or three SMUCKER'S® Jelly Beans or other egg-shaped candies into each nest.
