I cut down a small cake layer to make my nest but it's MUCH faster to use a donut mold!
I used malted chocolates as they are larger than the mini chocolate eggs and fill the nest better.
If you don't want to pile all the little chocolate tubes for the nest just cover in buttercream then pat on toasted coconut for a similar effect.
No buttermilk? Add a tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to whole milk. Mix and set aside for a few minutes then use in the batter.
The coffee is optional. GO ahead and use water if preferred.

Is there any cake which is not made of egg. I am vegetarian and don't eat egg but I love cakes :)
