Gourmet Easter Eggs

Move over regular chocolate eggs and make way for our gourmet Easter egg recipe! We've chosen to share our chocolate orange recipe but get creative and use your favourite flavours and textures...

Ingredients

Chocolate Orange

200g Chocolate
1 teaspoon Orange extract
1 teaspoon Orange zest
Easter egg moulds

Instructions

Chocolate Orange

Melt the chocolate and add the orange extract. Allow to cool and spread a quarter of the chocolate in to the moulds using a clean and unused paintbrush. Leave the chocolate inside the moulds to set by storing in the fridge.

Reheat the melted chocolate and again, leave to cool. Repeat the process of evenly spreading a quarter of the chocolate in to the mould and place in the fridge for an hour until you have a tablespoon of chocolate left.

Carefully remove from the mould, leave in the fridge for longer if the chocolate isn't easily coming away from the mould.

Add your desired filling but don't take too long as the Easter egg will begin to melt especially if your filling is warm. Sprinkle toppings to garnish then place in the refrigerator until set.
