Chocolate and Easter go together like, well... Chocolate and Easter. From Chocolate Bunnies, to Cadbury Eggs, there are no limits to the ECG's chocolate intake on Easter Sunday...Monday...okay, Easter Week. And here are her favorite super easy chocolate treats to make for all her favorite Peeps!
Let's just start by letting you know that ALL of these treats were made with Coating Chocolate...'cause this one here does NOT have time or patience for Tempering. Don't know what tempering is? YOU DON'T HAVE TO!!! Just get yourself some Clasen or Merckens Coating (shop at the end of the blog) and simply melt it in the microwave at 15 second intervals. It's smooth, delicious, and puts those horrible craft-store "candy melts" to shame.
'Nuff Said, let's talk treats:
1) Chocolate Wrapped Mini Cakes
These are deceptively easy to make, especially when you use any of our chocolate coatings (no need to temper chocolate!) Check out the delicious process HERE
2) Gourmet Candy Bars
Watch how easy these were to make:
Okay, okay, there is an anti-jelly-beans-in-chocolate faction over here at the lair...ahem...Erin. But the ECG says don't knock it 'til you've tried it. It's surprisingly good, but if you're more of a purist, these bars can be customized with any dried fruits, nuts, crushed cookies, etc. and any of our easter Printed Icing Sheets. Here are just a few options:

3) Treat-Filled Chocolate Eggs
The ECG just loves a treat inside a treat! We've got egg molds in all sizes to hold a handful of jelly beans, or full on Peeps Chicks or Cadbury Eggs.
Watch how fun these are to make HERE
4) Chocolate Covered Cookies
This lil' ol' favorite of the ECG started with Chocolate Covered Oreos, and has quickly become a game of "what fits in the Chocolate Covered Oreo Mold?" So far her favorites are Girl Scout Thin Mints and Caramel Delights. And with our perfectly sized Cookie Printed Icing Sheet Circles, they're ridiculously easy to make.

5) Gourmet Creme Eggs
Swap the toothache-inducing Cadbury Eggs this year for these lil' gourmet numbers. They're the perfect finish to Sunday Brunch, filled with 2 kinds of Mousse, and with our Instant Mousse Mix, they're as easy to make as Instant Pudding.

It doesn't matter if you're into the old-school molds with the googley royal icing eyes or if you're into avant garde Geometric Bunnies, we've got all the angles covered!
