Easter Egg Nests

I guess I will have to make these to get a picture of them. I found one on Google and didn't save it, my bad. My daughter always loved to make these when she was little. They look cute arranged around the edges of an easter cake.

4 cups shredded coconut
2 1 lb bags white chocolate_chips
1 bag small jelly beans or other egg shaped candy
Green paste or powdered food color (Wiltom makes this)
2 large cookie sheets lined with waxed paper

Note: Do not use liquid alcohol based food coloring as it will cause the chocolate to bind. If chocolate gets overheated and turns grainy, mix in a tiny bit of solid shortening and stir, adding more until the mixture becomes smooth again.
