Another wonderful egg recipe from Linda! These eggs were even better than the candy bar!!! And they were quite easy to make. Thank you for sharing such a great recipe! We made and gave away several dozen over the weeks before and during Easter!

I made these up and froze them so I can make Easter baskets for my family next month. I love the fact that these freeze so well! These remind me so much of Almond Joys, only better! I can't wait to see everyone's faces when they bite into these eggs!

I made a trial run of these little gems to try, to see if I wanted to make them for my kids for Easter. Made exactly as listed and they came out perfect. I tried cutting back on the confectionary sugar, but they were too sticky, so I guess I should know better than to try to stray away from the recipe posted :D I made them into round balls instead of eggs for this round, but will be making the egg shaped eggs for the kids Easter baskets. These are so yummy, that even though they were really rich, you couldn't leave them alone! Tastes a lot like an Almond Joy. My kids are going to go belistic when they see these in their baskets! I plan to try your other ones too Linda. They all look so good! Can't wait to make the peanut butter ones next! WIggie

I had so much fun making these with my nieces. We wanted to do some ahead of Easter, so the girls could see if they would be something they wanted to make for their parents Easter Baskets. They are delicious! They were much like Almond Joys, so if you like them, you will love these! Make sure you measure the ingredients right, and they come out perfect. Don't eyeball it, or they may be sticky. One of my nieces wasn't watching and measured wrong the first time around and hers were sticky. We added the right amount of cream cheese and confectionary sugar and they came out perfect. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe and your other egg recipes with us Linda. They are all excellent! We will be using them for our baskets for years to come.

Only made half a batch of these the first time, and now I'll need to make them again!

I made up a batch of these to bring into work to share with my co-workers after a grueling audit. Everyone must have had a sweet tooth because these disappeared in no time flat! I will be making these every year for Easter, but will also be making them into balls and added to my trays at Christmas time. These are so delicious! Even better than an Almond Joy. I also made Linda's Buttercream Eggs and Linda's Peanut Butter Easter Eggs to go with these for variety. All were amazing!

These eggs are even better than the Almond Joy candy bar! My whole family absolutly loved them! Next time I will have to double the recipe so that we won't have to share ours! The only change I made was adding a small amount of household wax to the chocolate chips when melting. (this just helped to thin the chocolate out a bit for easier dipping). Thanks so much for the delicious recipe!!

These are TDF! I don't know if there will be any left to go in my DH's Easter basket, but that WAS the plan! Right at the moment there are 8, but by Easter, who knows??? I may just eat them all myself hehe! Another great treat for my DH's sweet tooth thanks to Linda!
