What You Need

1/3

cup butter or margarine, softened

pkg. (4-serving size) JELL-O Chocolate Instant Pudding

1/3

cup boiling water

cups unsifted powdered sugar

pkg. (4 oz. each) BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Chocolate, broken into pieces

oz. BAKER'S White Chocolate (optional)

Make It

MIX butter and dry pudding mix in large bowl. Gradually add boiling water, stirring until well blended. Stir in powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition until mixture forms a ball. Shape scant tablespoonfuls of the pudding mixture into 30 small eggs, each about 1-1/2 inches long. (If pudding mixture is too soft, refrigerate about 15 minutes to firm slightly before shaping.) Refrigerate 30 minutes or until eggs are firm.

MICROWAVE semi-sweet chocolate in microwavable bowl on HIGH 1-1/2 to 2 minutes or until slightly melted. Stir until chocolate is completely melted. Dip eggs into chocolate. Refrigerate on wax paper-covered tray 15 minutes or until chocolate is firm. Meanwhile, microwave white chocolate in separate microwavable bowl on HIGH 1-1/2 to 2 minutes or until slightly melted. Stir until chocolate is completely melted.

DRIZZLE white chocolate over eggs; let stand until set. Store in airtight container in refrigerator.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

How to Dip Eggs

Pierce egg with wooden skewer. Dip into melted chocolate. Let excess chocolate drip off before placing egg on wax paper-covered tray. Gently remove skewer. Repeat with remaining eggs. Or for a quicker and easier method of covering the eggs with chocolate, just pour a spoonful of melted chocolate over each egg on wax paper-covered tray.

How to Drizzle Chocolate

Spoon melted chocolate into a small freezer-weight resealable plastic bag; seal bag. Fold down top of bag tightly. Snip a tiny (about 1/8-inch) piece off one of the bottom corners of bag. Holding the top of the bag firmly, drizzle chocolate through opening in desired patterns on eggs.

Pastel Eggs

Prepare as directed, using JELL-O Vanilla Flavor Instant Pudding and adding a few drops of food coloring to the pudding mixture.

I was not happpy with this recipe at all. It came out so bad and it's so difficult to make alone. The recipe is very unclear and this is the first time i was dissatisfied with kraftfoods.com. I wouldn't recomend this to anybody. Thank you for reading my comment.

The recipe in the book called for 3 cups sifted icing sugar. I did use confectioners sugar and sifted it as instructed. However, it did not thicken. It had the consistency of pudding. I put it in the refrigerator thinking that would help but it never got hard. It stayed runny.

I also made substitutions for this recipe. I used french vanilla pudding instead of chocolate and peanut butter for the margarine. Made a great peanut butter egg -- better than the ones from churches we've been buying for several years.

I am a chocolate lover and I am very impressed with the whole concept of this recipe. It also would make a lovely gift.

My 3 year old son thoroughly enjoyed himself while helping me make and decorate these eggs. They are very yummy too!

I used the recipe in your magazine, instead of the web. The magazine had 'icing sugar' instead of 'powdered sugar' like the web. I've never heard of icing sugar before. It also says it will make 3 - 4 dozen eggs. I got 14 1 1/2' eggs out of it. Also it said 1 package (4 serving size) of pudding. Why don't you give the weight of the package or say the small box? Was the magazine I received published for another english speaking country instead of the USA??
