Ingredients

300g dark chocolate
100g milk chocolate
300ml cream
100g marshmallows,roughly chopped
100g Madeira cake, roughly chopped
100g chocolate freckles, roughly chopped
Canola oil spray
Hundreds and thousands

Method

1. Break the dark and milk chocolate into pieces in a bowl. Bring cream to the boil in a saucepan and pour it over the chocolate. Stir until chocolate has melted, then put bowl over a larger bowl of iced water, to cool. In another bowl, mix marshmallows with the cake and chocolate freckles.

2. Spray each egg half-mould half with canola oil and line with plastic wrap, leaving a 1cm overhang. Flatten out any air pockets under the plastic wrap. When chocolate and cream mixture has cooled to about 30-34°C (just below body temperature and still runny), combine it with the marshmallow mixture. Fill each half-mould with mixture to just above the rim. Align the 2 halves and gently press together. Wrap whole egg moulds in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

3. When set, remove the eggs from moulds. Roll in hundreds and thousands.
