CREME FILLED CHOCOLATE EGGS RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Combine the water, corn syrup, and sugar in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat.
• Stir until the sugar dissolves, then cover the pan and allow the sugar syrup to boil for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Remove the lid, insert a candy thermometer , and continue to cook the syrup, without stirring, until it reaches 240 F (115 C).
• Pour the fondant into a 9 x 13-inch pan, insert the candy thermometer, and let it cool, undisturbed, until it reaches 120 F (49 C).
• Using a dampened plastic spatula or wooden spoon, begin to "cream," or work, the fondant in a figure-8 pattern. Continually scrape the fondant into the center, draw a figure-8, then scrape it together again. At first, the fondant will be very clear and fluid, but it will gradually become more opaque and creamy.
• After 5 to 10 minutes, the fondant will become very stiff, crumbly, and hard to manipulate. If you would like to see a photo tutorial of this fondant-making process, check out the step-by-step guide to make fondant here .
• Once the fondant reaches this state, moisten your hands and begin kneading it into a ball like bread dough. As you knead, the fondant will begin to come together and will get softer and smoother.
• Stop kneading once your fondant is a smooth ball without lumps. At this point, you can pause and wrap the fondant in plastic wrap for several days before continuing with the recipe.
• Chop the fondant into smaller pieces and place it in a mixing bowl.
• Add the vanilla extract and the invertase and mix it until the liquids are incorporated. It will be soft and sticky.
• Take approximately one-quarter of the fondant (about 4 ounces) and knead in the yellow food coloring until you get a bright, egg yolk color.
• Roll the yellow fondant into small balls about the size of a dime. You should get about 16 to 18 small yellow balls. Place them on a foil-lined baking sheet and refrigerate them until they are very firm.
• Once the yellow balls are firm, roll a larger ball of white candy and flatten it in your palm.
• Place the yellow "yolk" in the center of the egg "white," and wrap the white around the yellow ball. Form the candy into an egg shape, and place it back on the foil-covered sheet.
• Once all of your eggs are formed, refrigerate the candy again until it is firm enough to dip.
• Melt the chocolate candy coating. Using dipping tools or a fork, dip each egg in the coating and place it back on the foil-covered baking sheet.
• Let the eggs sit at room temperature, then check to make sure they are entirely covered in chocolate. If there are any holes in the coating, the filling might leak through, so make sure to patch up any weak spots or dip the eggs again until they're well-coated with chocolate.
• Place the eggs in an airtight container, and let them sit at room temperature for at least five days to liquefy the filling. If you can't wait that long, they will still have a great vanilla fondant flavor whenever you choose to eat them.

CHOCOLATE COVERED EASTER EGGS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the butter, vanilla, and cream cheese. Stir in confectioners' sugar to make a workable dough. For best results, use your hands for mixing.
• Divide the dough into four parts. Leave one of the parts plain. To the second part, mix in peanut butter. Mix coconut into the third part, and cocoa powder into the last part. Roll each type of dough into egg shapes, and place on a waxed paper-lined cookie sheet. Refrigerate until hard, at least an hour.
• Melt chocolate chips in a heat-proof bowl over a pan of simmering water. Stir occasionally until smooth. If the chocolate seems too thick for coating, stir in a teaspoon of the shortening or oil until it thins to your desired consistency. Dip the chilled candy eggs in chocolate, and return to the waxed paper lined sheet to set. Refrigerate for 1/2 hour to harden.

CHEESECAKE-FILLED EASTER EGGS

Steps:

• Carefully separate the Easter egg in half along the seam. (Use a knife dipped into a bowl of hot water to cut through the seam rather than slicing, as it may break the chocolate.)
• Tip the digestive biscuits into a bowl or food bag and bash to crumbs with the end of a rolling pin. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture resembles damp sand. Spoon this into the Easter egg halves and pack down gently using the back of the spoon. Chill until needed.
• Mix the mascarpone, soft cheese, icing sugar and cocoa together in a medium bowl with a wooden spoon until smooth. In a separate bowl, beat the double cream to soft peaks using an electric whisk. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture, then carefully spoon the cheesecake filling over the chilled biscuit bases in the Easter eggs. Gently level the surfaces with a palette knife or spatula, then chill for at least 2 hrs or overnight until firm and set. You may be left with extra cheesecake filling, depending on the size of your Easter eggs - this can be spooned into glasses over extra digestive crumbs for another treat.
• Scatter the set cheesecake-filled eggs with mini chocolate eggs or other Easter treats, then drizzle with caramel or melted chocolate to serve.

BUTTER CREAM EASTER EGG CANDIES

Steps:

• Beat butter in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Mix cream cheese and vanilla into creamed butter until smooth; stir in confectioners' sugar until incorporated. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until mixture is firm, about 2 hours.
• Roll sugar mixture into small egg-shapes; arrange on a baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours more.
• Line a baking sheet with waxed paper.
• Melt chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching. Dip eggs into melted chocolate using a fork or wooden skewer until evenly coated.
• Arrange dipped eggs on the prepared baking sheet; garnish with sprinkles. Allow chocolate to harden, about 30 minutes. Place eggs in paper muffin or candy cups and store in refrigerator.
