These delicious cream filled eggs taste just like a very famous store bought
one. They are easy to make and kids and adults love them.
1 cup soft butter
2 tsp salt
4 tsp vanilla
1 can condensed milk (Eagle Brand)
10 cups icing sugar
1 tsp. yellow food coloring
1 lb. semisweet chocolate
Beat butter, salt and vanilla until fluffy. Add milk, beat in sugar. Blend until
stiff. Dust with brown sugar. Knead until smooth.
Set aside more then 2/3 of mixture. To the remaining mixture add yellow
food coloring. Blend in well. Divide yellow and white into 16 or 24 pieces.
Shape yellow into ball, mould white around yellow to form an egg shape.
Dry at room temperature on paper towels for 24 hours.
Melt chocolate in double boiler or in microwave until smooth. Dip eggs in
chocolate. (paraffin wax may be added and melted with chocolate to prevent
chocolate from melting in your hands). Once dipped cool at room
temperature. Refrigerate after cool.
When sliced these eggs will have a white cream filling with a yellow filling
that appears to be the yolk. They look nice sitting in an Easter basket!!
