  6. Place mounds of chocolate/chow mien mixture onto several plates (on top of waxed paper).
  7. Have children form the mixtures into nests.

That's really cool! 5!


This would be a great one for the Grands. Feeding right before we send them home. Like winding up an eight day clock. Then watch them run. 5 on the presentation, creativity,and sharing a recipe that will be as entertaining as it is fun to make, serve and taste.
