saucepan, stirring until butter melts. Add chocolate and whisk until

cream. Let stand until cool but still pourable, stirring
occasionally, about 30 minutes.

below top edge. Chill until set, about 40 minutes.
To assemble: Rewarm reserved melted chocolate in top of double boiler
to 115 deg. F for bittersweet and 105 deg. F for white chocolate.

melted chocolate (use bittersweet for dark eggs and white chocolate
for white eggs) atop 1 set of filled eggs just to cover. use icing
spatula to scrape excess chocolate from eggs and clean sides. Place
mold in refrigerator. Repeat with remaining egg molds. Refrigerate
all molds until chocolate is firm, about 1 hour.

refrigerator. Turn mold over onto foil. Gently bend and twist mold
side to side several times to release halves of chocolate eggs.

Rewarm remaining melted chocolate in top of double boiler until warm
to touch. Turn bottom half of 1 egg over so flat sides face up.

with corresponding top half of egg and press together gently.

chocolate. (Can be prepared 2 weeks ahead. Store in airtight
