Bird Nest Brownie Bowls Recipe

Allie

Bird Nest Brownie Bowls are an adorable chocolate dessert that is perfect for springtime.

It’s getting warmer and it’s finally starting to feel like springtime. The birds have been singing and making their nests. To celebrate spring, I made Bird Nest Brownie Bowls using my bake-a-bowl pan. The chocolate brownie bowls are filled with chocolate frosting to form a “nest”. Then mini chocolate candy eggs are placed inside to complete the “bird nest”. Bird Nest Brownie Bowls are an adorable dessert that is perfect for spring.
