Easter Chocolate Nests (M&Ms)
I discovered the beautiful blog of Annyvonne (@annyvonne_postic_thithoad) through the fantastic Facebook Group “tests de recettes entre blogueurs”. This April 2023 our Group Challenge was to pick an “EASTER RECIPE” from another blogger. Hence, I fell in love with Annyvonne’s recipe because it simply looked gorgeous and I needed to use some of Easter Bunny’s Chocolate! Of course, you will find her recipe right HERE!
I hope your will Enjoy this Chocolate Cake recipe as much as I did! Bon Appétit!

Easter Chocolate Nests (M&Ms)
Equipment
Ingredients
CHOCOLATE NESTS
- 3 eggs
- 8 Tbsp (115 g) butter (Melted)
- 1/4 cup (65 g) heavy cream (Original Recipe calls for Milk)
- 1 3/4 cup (200 g) powdered sugar
- 1 2/3 cup (210 g) all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup (30 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 Tbsp (6 g) baking powder
CHOCOLATE GANACHE
- 4 oz (113.4 g) dark chocolate chunks
- 1/2 cup (120 g) heavy whipping cream
DECORATION
- candy coated chocolate pieces (Mms | Spring Edition)
Instructions
- Place your Mini Bon Flexipat® Tray on the top of your Medium Perforated Baking Sheet. Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 350F/180C.
CHOCOLATE NESTS PREPARATION
- Place butter in a small sauce pan and heat on medium until melted. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs together with the powdered sugar. Add the heavy whipping cream and cooled melted butter. Combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder and the unsweetened cocoa powder. Mix until smooth.
- Scoop your batter into your Mini Bon Flexipat® Tray.
BAKE!
- Bake for 22 minutes at 350F/180C. (Every oven heats differently, monitor your cake from 20min). It is ready when the toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Once your Easter Chocolate Nests (M&Ms) are out of the oven, let them cool down for a couple of minutes. Then, flip onto your cooling rack and prepare the chocolate ganache.
CHOCOLATE GLAZE PREPARATION
- Pour the Heavy Whipping Cream into the Mini Round Mold and bring it just to a boil in microwave, about 30 seconds at a time (1 minute total). Add the dark chocolate chips and swirl to coat all chips. Allow to sit for 2 minutes, then stir.
- Decorate to your liking: I used M&Ms. Enjoy & Bon Appétit!
