Crispy Easter Nests

Chef's Notes
To make it easier to shape the cereal mixture into a nest, place the paper liners in a muffin pan so you'll have a hard surface to press against. You can use either liquid food coloring or food coloring gel or paste. Use a toothpick for the gel or paste; if you use the liquid food coloring, blend the coloring into the coconut with a fork.
