Chocolate Easter Eggs


 
Ingredients
  • 1 cup soft butter 
  • 2 teaspoons salt 
  • 4 teaspoons vanilla 
  • 1 can condensed milk (Eagle Brand) 
  • 10 cups powdered sugar 
  • 1 teaspoon yellow food coloring 
  • 1 pound semi sweet chocolate 
Method 
  
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 than 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, mold 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).

 Refrigerate after cool.  
When sliced, they will have a white cream filling with a yellow filling that appears to be the yolk.
