Place the cereal in a large mixing bowl and set aside.
Add the sugar and corn syrup to a medium saucepan and place over medium heat.
Stir constantly until the mixture comes to a full rolling boil. Remove from heat
Add chocolate hazelnut spread and carefully stir to combine.
Pour the hot mixture over the cereal and mix until each piece of cereal is evenly coated.
Allow a few minutes for the mixture to cool enough to handle, then use lightly greased hands to mold about ¼ cup of the mixture into a nest shape.
Place the nests on a sheet of waxed paper to harden. (Re-form the nests if they become misshapen as they cool.)
Place a few mini chocolate eggs into the cooled nests and enjoy!
