    Recipe Introduction


    The kind that looks like a "real" egg inside!

    List of Ingredients




    1/2 cups light corn syrup

    1/4 cup butter, softened

    1 teaspoon vanilla

    1/4 teaspoon salt

    3 cups powdered sugar

    4 drops yellow food coloring

    2 drops red food coloring

    1 - 12 oz. bag milk chocolate chips

    2 Tablespoon shortening

    Recipe



    Combine corn syrup, butter, vanilla and salt in large bowl. Beat well with electric mixer.

    Add sugar, one cup at a time, mixing by hand after each addition.

    Remove about 1/3 of the mix and place in small bowl. Add yellow & red coloring and stir. Cover both mixes and refrigerate at least 2 hours.

    When mixes are firm, roll a small ball from the orange filling and wrap around it a portion of the white filling that is twice that size.

    Form into the shape of an egg and place onto a cookie sheet that has been brushed with shortening.

    Repeat with remaining ingredients. Refrigerate 3-4 hrs.

    Combine chocolate chips with shortening in glass bowl.

    Microwave on high for 1 minute. Then stir and microwave another minute.

    Use a fork to dip each center into the chocolate. Place candy onto wax paper to dry. After 1-2 hours of chilling, dip each candy one more time and chill.
