I thought that this was a sweet and festive idea for Easter. They turned out really cute! With a toasted coconut nest and jelly bean eggs these cupcakes look just like a little bird nest. These were made with yellow buttermilk cake and swiss meringue buttercream frosting, but they can be made in any flavor that you like.
I am a big fan of key lime pie, so these cupcakes were ones that I was very anxious to try. I made a simple vanilla cake with a hint of lime zest, and then filled the inside of the cupcake with a key lime filling. They were topped with a super light and fluffy meringue topping. A delicious treat for any key lime pie lover!
