3. Spoon six mounds on to each baking sheet, shaping into rounds with a dip in the centre.
4. Chill in the refrigerator for several hours until set, then peel the nests carefully off the foil and fill with chicks and small chocolate eggs.
And sprinkle chocolate flake over chicks nests
Note:
You can buy ready-made Easter chicks or model your own out of yellow marzipan, adding beaks, crests and eyes from small pieces of white, red and black sugarpaste icing.
