Notes
- Add some shredded coconut along with the mini eggs for even more of a nest look.
- Drizzle with chocolate if you'd like!
- Line your cookie sheets with parchment to ensure easy removal.
- If you don’t have a microwave, you can melt the butterscotch chips on the stovetop.
- Separate the layers of cookies with parchment paper, so if they melt they won’t stick together.
