HOMEMADE CHOCOLATE EASTER EGGS
These chocolate easter eggs are made without a mold. They are basically oval chocolate truffles . I usually coat half in cocoa powder and the other half in coconut flakes. Store in the fridge for up to 1 week, but they never last that long in my house!

- In a large bowl, mix together the butter, vanilla, and cream cheese. Stir in confectioners' sugar to make a workable dough. For best results, use your hands for mixing.
- Divide the dough into four parts. Leave one of the parts plain. To the second part, mix in peanut butter. Mix coconut into the third part, and cocoa powder into the last part. Roll each type of dough into egg shapes, and place on a waxed paper-lined cookie sheet. Refrigerate until hard, at least an hour.

Steps:
- Bring cream to simmer in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat. Add chocolate and stir just until melted and smooth. Add butter and stir until melted. Remove from heat. Stir in Grand Marnier and orange peel. Pour mixture into 8x8x2-inch glass baking dish. Refrigerate until mixture is firm enough to shape, about 1 hour 30 minutes.
- Line baking sheet with foil. Using scant 2 tablespoonfuls for each truffle, spoon 16 mounds of chocolate mixture onto prepared sheet. Using 2 serving teaspoons to form eggs and holding 1 teaspoon in 1 hand and second teaspoon in other hand, scoop 1 mound of chocolate from the first spoon to the second. Scoop chocolate from 1 spoon to the other several times, running spoon over surface of mounded chocolate to smooth oval as much as possible. Using palms of hands, roll chocolate mound into egg shape, smoothing surface as much as possible (surface will not be completely smooth). Place on plate. Repeat with remaining chocolate mounds. Refrigerate chocolate eggs until firm, about 45 minutes. Working in batches and using table knife or fingers, smooth surface of chocolate eggs again, if necessary. Chill until firm, about 15 minutes. Sift cocoa powder over chocolate eggs, covering completely. Cover and refrigerate. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Keep refrigerated.)

- You can use either a double boiler or place a bowl over a pot of simmering water (make sure the bowl does not touch the water). Using chopped chocolate (use a good quality chocolate) reserve a quarter of the amount of chocolate in a separate bowl to add later. Use a silicone spatula and a good thermometer, and that is all you need. Bring the water in your saucepan to a simmer. Continuously stir the chocolate until it is melted smoothly.
- Place your theremometer in the chocolate and bring it to –118°F (48°C) for Dark Chocolate.112°F (45°C) for Milk Chocolate. Remove the bowl of chocolate from the saucepan and carefully wipe the steam from bottom of the bowl. Do not let even one drop of water fall into the chocolate because it will cause the chocolate to seize and then your chocolate is completely ruined! So please be careful!
- Then add the reserved chocolate to the melted chocolate this will help bring down the temperature of the chocolate. Stir until smooth. Keep stirring until the temperature of the chocolate reaches –89-90°F (32°C) for Dark Chocolate86-88°F (30°C) for Milk Chocolate
- If you need to, you can place your bowl of chocolate into another bowl of cool water to help speed up this process. If the temperature of your chocolate goes too low, then you can slowly reheat it over the pot of simmering water until it reaches its right temperature –89-90oF (32C) for Dark Chocolate86-88oF (30C) for Milk Chocolate / White Chocolate

- Place a piece of plastic wrap over the egg mold. This will ensure the marzipan eggs can be easily removed from the mold. Otherwise, the oil in the marzipan can cause it to tick in the mold.
- That a small ball of marzipan and knead with your finger so you have no cracks. Place it into the mold over the plastic wrap and press down into shape. Pro tip - the amount of marzipan will depend on the size of the mold and the size of the nut you stuff into the mold.
- Melt compound chocolate in a bowl. Add a tablespoon or two of vegetable oil so it is a thick pouring consistency. Pro tip - The thicker the chocolate the thicker the coating around the eggs. Alternatively, you can use tempered chocolate.
