Serves: 12
Preparation time: 20 minutes
Absolute time: 2 hours to set and firm
You need:
Egg Mold – You can usually find these at a specialty baking store. During the season, you can often find them among Easter stalls. You want to search the bakery section of the store.
Empty egg carton for refrigerator protection.
Ingredients
Vegan chocolate chips or a bar
The amount of chocolate will depend entirely on the size of the mould. Promote first, check your mold for measurement. You should only melt enough dairy-free chocolate to fill the dairy-free Easter egg mold.
Directions
If you are using a bar, cut it into small pieces. Smaller pieces will melt faster and evenly.
Melt the dairy-free vegan chocolate chips (or bar) in a miniature wave dish for 10 second intervals and stir after each 10 second period until the chocolate is smooth.
Pour the mixture into the egg moulds.
Freeze for quick setting – a few minutes – then transfer to refrigerator until firm, about two hours. This may vary depending on the type of chocolate used.
Remove from mold. Twist like an ice cube tray and the eggs should pop out of the mold.
Serve the eggs on an egg level or in an empty egg carton. You can also use the egg carton to store eggs in the refrigerator.
