Chocolate Marshmallow Eggs
To make Chocolate Marshmallow Eggs, fill a cake pan at least 2 inches deep with
flour. Press a plastic egg into the flour making impressions approximately 1-inch apart.
Spoon the marshmallow creme into the impressions. Let set for one hour. Carefully
remove the marshmallow eggs from the flour and place on a waxed paper lined plate.
Freeze for 30 minutes. Melt dipping choclate or semi-sweet chocolate chips in a
double boiler over low heat. (Add a tiny amount of shortening to the chocolate if
needed to thin.) Using a spoon, dip the frozen marshmallow eggs in the chocolate to
coat. Place on waxed paper to set. Decorate eggs with icing flowers if desired.
