Step-by-step recipe

Step 1:

Place 200 grams of milk chocolate callets in a plastic bowl and gradually melt in the microwave on medium power. The final temperature should be 44-45 degrees Celsius.

Step 2:

Add another 50 grams of chocolate. Stir until melted. The temperature should drop to approximately 27 degrees Celsius.

Step 3:

Using a hair dryer, heat the chocolate to 31 degrees, stirring constantly, and pour into a pastry bag.

Step 4:

Fill the cavities of the egg mold with chocolate.

Step 5:

Tap the mold to level the chocolate and release excess air.

Step 6:

Turn the mold upside down over a bowl and gently shake out any unset excess chocolate.

Step 7:

Use a spatula to remove excess chocolate from the surface of the mold, leveling the edges, and leave the shells to harden at room temperature, then put them in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.

Step 8:

Rub the cottage cheese through a sieve into a clean bowl. Stir.

Step 9:

Add vanilla sugar. Stir.

Step 10:

Set aside some of the curd mixture and add powdered sugar to the remaining mixture. Stir.

Step 11:

Add boiled condensed milk to the reserved portion of chocolate. Stir.

Step 12:

Place both types of filling into pastry bags.

Step 13:

Remove the finished egg halves from the mold and fill six of them with one filling and six with the other.

Step 14:

Place crispy chocolate balls into the halves with condensed milk.

Step 15:

Make indentations in the vanilla filling and collect the eggs.

Cooking tips

Microwave the chocolate in 15-second bursts, stirring well to ensure even heating. Do not exceed 45 degrees Celsius (113 degrees Fahrenheit).

You need to fill the pastry bag with chocolate and fill the mold quickly so that the chocolate does not have time to cool.

Instead of crispy balls, you can add any other filling to the filling - berries, cookie crumbs or chocolate chips.

The ingredients listed in the recipe are enough for 6 stuffed eggs.
