Create Hollow Easter Eggs
You will need:
Tips:
Provide an ample amount of coating.
Pick from milk chocolate, dark chocolate or white
confectionery coating. Place the desired amount of
coating in a glass bowl or measuring cup. Put in the
microwave and heat for approximately 30 seconds and
stir. Repeat this heating and stirring process until
the coating is entirely melted. Don't rush the
procedure - you can ruin the coatings through
overheating. Also, water is dangerous to coating.
Drops of water can make the coating seize and you
will have to throw it out!
Instructions:
-
For hollow mould - melt
chocolate in the microwave. Pour into
one half of the mould. Snap mould
halves together and clamp with metal clips.
Rotate and invert mould numerous times as to
coat entire area of cavity with coating.
Place clamped mould in freezer to harden for
approximately 5 minutes. Remove from
freezer, unclamp and gently pop out from the
mould.
-
Unmoulding takes
a gentle touch and the chocolate should slide
right out. Of course, you want to touch the
chocolate as little as possible as the heat from
your body will cause it to start melting.
To keep the Easter egg looking fresh, place in cello bag
and tie with a ribbon.
