Nesting Spring Chickie Weecakies

I have decided that I can't wait any longer for SPRING! We are having a very cold and wet spring in this desert place that I live, so,for the first time in my life I am thinking "Enough of this snow!"  Last week we woke up to 6 inches plus of the white stuff TWICE!  Anyway.....enough all ready.  It's time for Spring.  To celebrate the change in season, the warm times to come, and the blossoming of new life, I made these Nesting Spring Chickie Weecakies.  I first saw them here: http://www.marthastewart.com/photogallery/easter-cupcakes#slide_7  a couple of years ago, and again this year on a couple of blogs that I follow.  Remember, though, my Nesting Spring Chickie Weecakies are less that 2 inches big.  Each one is a deep chocolate cake truffle, dipped in chocolate, topped with toasted coconut and nested with chocolate baby chickies.   As I worked on them last night, I thought about Spring and smiled.  Come to me, this new beginning...........Ah.......tis Spring at last! :)
