Parshas Ki Teitzei

This past week's Parsha had many mitzvos in it.  We chose to focus on the mitzvah of Shiluach Hakein, the mitzvah to send the mother bird away before taking the eggs from her nest. 

We made birds' nests out of chocolate chips, peanut butter and chow mein noodles, with jelly beans as the eggs. 

Unfortunately, all were eaten before a picture was taken, but the basic idea was this:

(minus the easter grass... )

Recipe:

1 (12 oz.) pkg. chocolate chips
1/2 c. peanut butter
4 c. chow mein noodles

Jellybeans, M & M's or little candies

Melt chocolate chips on stovetop, remove from heat, add peanut butter and chow mein noodles and mix.  Spoon into muffin tins, make an indentation with the back of your spoon or your finger, and freeze for about an hour.  Right before serving, add the jelly beans/candies and enjoy!
