    Cut cherries in half; drain well on paper towels.

Form the mixture into 8 to 10 egg shapes with hands coated in butter. Place on wax paper covered cookie sheet. Chill several hours until firm.

    Melt chocolate being careful not to scorch it. Frost egg with melted chocolate. Decorate with a buttercream icing.
