Ingredients To make chocolate-filled Easter eggs, you'll need the following ingredients: 500g of high-quality milk or dark chocolate200g of white chocolate1 tablespoon of vegetable oilEaster egg moldsStep 1: Melting the Chocolate The first step in making chocolate-filled Easter eggs is to melt the chocolate. You can do this by placing a bowl of chocolate over a pot of boiling water, stirring until the chocolate has melted. Alternatively, you can melt the chocolate in the microwave by heating it in short bursts and stirring in between. Step 2: Filling the Molds Once the chocolate has melted, use a pastry brush to coat the inside of the Easter egg molds with chocolate. Make sure to coat the entire mold evenly, and then place it in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes to allow the chocolate to set. Step 3: Adding the Filling While the chocolate is setting, melt the white chocolate in the same way as the milk or dark chocolate. Once melted, add a tablespoon of vegetable oil to the white chocolate and mix well. This will make the white chocolate more pliable and easier to handle. Next, remove the chocolate-filled molds from the refrigerator and spoon the white chocolate filling into each mold. Make sure not to overfill the molds, as this will make it difficult to close the eggs later on. Step 4: Closing the Eggs After adding the filling, use a pastry brush to coat the top of each mold with more melted chocolate. This will seal the eggs and ensure that the filling stays inside. Place the molds back in the refrigerator for another 10-15 minutes to allow the chocolate to set. Step 5: Removing the Eggs from the Molds Once the chocolate has set, remove the molds from the refrigerator and gently tap them on a flat surface to release the eggs. If the eggs do not come out easily, you can try placing the molds in warm water for a few seconds before tapping them again.
