We were talking about dinosaurs today at preschool and I let the kids make 'nests' that we filled with 'eggs'. It was a fun simple project that I thought I would share with you.
4 oz. butter or margarine
1/2 c. milk
2 c. sugar (1 1/2 c. should be plenty)
1 c. chocolate chips
3-4 Tbl. peanut butter
3 c. oats, quick or regular
1 tsp. vanilla extract
Combine the margarine, milk, sugar, PB and vanilla in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and boil for 1 minute. Place the oats and chocolate chips in a bowl. Pour the hot syrup over the dry and mix well. Drop by spoonful onto wax paper or into bowls. Allow to cool before shaping into nests. Top with jelly beans.
