Recipe: Mini Bird Nest Cupcakes

I’m loving the fun mini bird nest cupcake recipe that Jenn from Rook No. 17 shared today on The Southern Institute!

What comes to mind when you think of springtime? For me it’s robin’s egg blue, Easter baskets, spotted newborn deer on their wobbly little legs, flowering trees and the sweet songs of birds nesting in their leafy branches. It’s the latter that inspired these dainty little cupcakes.

As though the coconut nests with chocolate eggs weren’t cute enough on their own, Jenn also included a free printable for making your own decorated egg carton. I don’t know about you, but I’ve suddenly got a craving for adorable lemon cupcakes!
