I decided to make my own Easter eggs this year, especially since I’m too old to go hunting for them 😀 I used one of my favorite recipes for vanilla cupcakes and added a few touches as I like to do with all recipes.
I used mini cupcake liners that were Easter themed, instead of making a basket like the picture. In addition, I substituted the chocolate eggs for cacao nibs to make it healthier and less sweet. It worked out very well, especially with how small the mini cupcakes are. Lastly, I covered the top with shredded coconut so it could look more like a nest. The toasted coconut definitely gave it a nice crunch.
