Easter Eggs

Yummy Yummy...fantastic way to have the kids participate in making Easter goodies to give away  & maybe slip a few into their own baskets!  Having the kids help in the kitchen is a great way to encourage them in math, science, and instill creativity.  This time will go a long way when they are grown & out of your house...might even mean some fantastic food coming back into your house too...

1 stick butter
1 tsp vanilla
2/3 can sweetened condensed milk
6 c confectioners sugar (10x)
8 oz unsweetened chocolate, melted

In a lg bowl, cream butter until light & fluffy.  Add vanilla & milk.  Beat until blended.
Add 1/3 of sugar, mix well.  Add more sugar, mix & add remaining sugar.
Remove mixture from bowl, form into egg shape.
Dip into melted chocolate (can sub out for white chocolate if you prefer white, or dark!)
Place on waxed paper lined cookie sheets & chill in refrigerator.

Be creative...if you love milk & dark, dip in the milk & once cooled, drizzle the dark over it in thin lines!  Or do the same with white chocolates, now you can even get colored chocolates & do colors to match your own color scheme for a party, or in pastels for Easter...use your imagination & have FUN!
