I am obsessed with Cadbury Eggs they are a weakness and when trying to loose some lbs for a upcoming wedding they are NOT my friend right now. But I am so trying these and hopefully they turn out and I can bring them to Easter Dinner at the In-laws!!
CADBURY EGGS (HOMEMADE)
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) salted butter, softened
3 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
Yellow food coloring
Chocolate candy melts or almond bark
In the bowl of a mixer, cream the butter, corn syrup and vanilla until smooth. Slowly add the powdered sugar and beat on medium low speed until well mixed. Spoon about a third of the mixture into a separate bowl and color it with yellow food coloring.
Refrigerate the white and yellow mixtures for at least an hour, for easier handling.
Roll the yellow mixture into balls and place on a wax paper lined baking sheet.
Place in the freezer for 20 minutes or so.
Remove from freezer and cover with white candy and form into an egg shape. Freeze eggs for about 30 minutes.
Melt your candy melts or almond bark according to package directions. Place eggs in the chocolate and coat completely. Remove and place back on wax paper lined baking sheet. Place in the refrigerator until chocolate has set.If you want these runny like traditional Cadbury Eggs, keep at room temperature. The candy mixture in the eggs softens very quickly.To see step by step photos on Instructibles.com,
