Hints & tips

Helpful Hint

An easy, neat way to cut the easter eggs open, is to “saw” a small incision at the chosen position on the egg, until you are almostthrough to the inner chocolate layer. Insert the knife tip, and push downwards with a little pressure into the sawn slit, and a neat lid slice will just pop off away from the main eggshell . It really works!

Instructions

01

Step 1

Cut off the top third from the pointed end of each egg. Position each rounded base piece into individual eggcups.

02

Step 2

Break up the chocolate into a bowl set snugly above a large bowl third-filled with boiling water. Set aside for the chocolate to melt gently in this heat.

03

Step 3

Lift the bowl away and gradually stir in the sour cream to achieve a glossy smooth mixture.

04

Step 4

Pour equally between the 6 egg cups to fill each one, and refrigerate in the original egg tray.

05

Step 5

For serving, position a yellow sweet in the centre to represent an egg yolk, and tilt the smaller egg lid pieces at a jaunty angle on each base.
