An addendum for peanut allergy sufferers
Those allergic to peanuts need not fear yesterday’s recipe: You can have your bird’s nest and eat it, too, by making a simple modification to the recipe. Skip the peanut butter in the recipe in favor of something non-nut derived like soy butter instead (thanks, Julie!). And instead of peanut butter chips, use butterscotch or chocolate chips.
You can also omit soy/nut/etc. butter altogether, and just melt the chips and stir in the noodles. Or melt marshmallows instead. The point is just to glue the noodles together. Just like a bird would.
