Aunt Patty brings these to every egg hunt and somehow the tray is empty before the first round is over. Just 3 simple components for absolute perfection.
Variations & Tips
For kids who don’t love dark or semisweet chocolate, you can use milk chocolate chips instead for a sweeter shell. If someone in your family prefers a saltier bite, sprinkle a tiny pinch of flaky salt on top of each egg right after dipping, before the chocolate sets. For smaller hands or younger kids, make mini eggs by using just 1 teaspoon of filling per egg and shortening the chilling time a bit. If you need to make these dairy-free, choose dairy-free chocolate chips and line your tray well so they don’t stick. To make them look a little more festive for a party, drizzle a second layer of melted chocolate over the set eggs using a fork, or melt just a few extra chips and flick lines back and forth. You can also stir in a tablespoon or two more powdered sugar if you like a firmer, less gooey center—this helps them hold up better on a warm day or when you’re traveling with the tray to a family egg hunt.
