Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Toast coconut for 3-5 minutes. Watch it carefully, as it can burn quickly. Cool.
Meanwhile, melt chocolate chips in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds, for about 1 ½ -2 minutes. Mix chocolate until fully melted.
Add coconut and stir thoroughly.
Using a cookie scoop, create 8 equal sized balls*. Press thumb into the middle of each ball to create a "nest" and then firmly mold the cookie so that it will hold together well.
Add 3 mini eggs* to each nest (while still warm).
Cool completely and serve.
Notes
*Make smaller nests and fill each with 2 mini eggs, if desired.
Store egg nests in an airtight container for about 2 weeks.
