Steps:
- Mix the butter and cream cheese together.
- (I put in the microwave for 30-45 secs. to soften).
- Add the confectionary sugar about 1 cup at a time, along with vanilla, and mix well. (I use my hands).
- Place the mixture in the freezer to chill for at least 20 minutes (You want it firm, but not frozen, so check it from time to time).
- Form the mixture into egg shapes with your hands. (It is helpful to put some confectionary sugar on your hands so the eggs don't stick to them).
- When you are done making the eggs, put them in freezer again for at least 25 minutes.
- Melt the chocolate in a a double boiler.
- Dip the bottom of the egg into the chocolate, then place it on a small flat dish. Take a spoon, and spoon some melted chocolate on top, spreading around with a butter knife. (Make sure you don't get it on too thick, or you won't have enough for the whole batch).
- Arrange the chocolate coated eggs on an aluminum foil paper lined tray.
- When done making eggs, put in the freezer for a few minutes to harden eggs.
- Place each egg in a pastel colored paper cupcake cup.
- Store in the refrigerator, covered with aluminum foil.

BUTTER CREAM EASTER EGG CANDIES
My grandmother used to make these every year at Easter. They taste very similar to the 'Mary Sue' butter cream Easter eggs that they used to sell during Easter-time when I was a kid.

Steps:
- In the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment (or in a large bowl using a handheld mixer), beat the butter until creamy (about 2 minutes).
- Add the confectioners' sugar. Beat on low for about a minute. Add the milk, vanilla, almond extract, and pinch of salt. Beat on high until smooth and creamy (about 3 minutes).
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place the buttercream mixture in the refrigerator to chill for one hour, up to 24 hours.
- When ready, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and remove the chilled buttercream from the refrigerator.
- Scoop out the buttercream with a one tablespoon scoop and roll it into a ball. Place it on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining buttercream. (If the mixture gets too sticky, add some confectioners' sugar to your hands.)
- Place the balls of buttercream in the refrigerator to chill for another hour, up to 24 hours.
- In the last few minutes of chilling the buttercream balls, melt the chocolate. Add the chocolate pieces and oil to a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 20-second increments, stirring after every 20 seconds, until the chocolate is melted and creamy. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to cool before dipping the buttercream balls.
- Remove the buttercream balls from the refrigerator. Working one at a time, gently drop the balls into the melted chocolate, making sure they are completely covered in chocolate.
- Using a fork, lift out the chocolate-covered buttercream. Use a toothpick or another fork to slide the buttercream candy onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Drizzle the remaining chocolate over the candies. Place in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has set.
- Store candies in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:
- Line a large baking tray with parchment or a silicone mat, and set aside until ready to use.
- In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, whip softened butter until light and fluffy. Whip in vanilla extract and salt.
- Gradually add icing sugar and milk, alternating between the two until all sugar is worked into the mixture and a soft dough has formed. If necessary, add a bit more icing sugar or milk-the dough should not be too sticky, or too stiff.
- Add your choice of flavor and color. If desired, you can separate the dough into several smaller bowls, rather than making only one flavor. You can also skip the flavoring and make classic vanilla buttercream eggs.
- Using your hands, shape the dough into balls and place on parchment-lined tray. Transfer to the refrigerator to chill while you melt and temper your chocolate.
- When chocolate is ready, remove buttercream centers from the fridge. Working quickly, use an enrobing fork to dip each center in the tempered chocolate and transfer to prepared tray. Decorate each egg with sprinkles or sanding sugar, or pipe with additional chocolate.
- Allow chocolate to set before transferring eggs to an airtight container. Layer eggs between parchment or wax paper. Store container in the refrigerator, or in a cool/dark place at room temperature, for up to two weeks.

- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in large bowl using a handheld electric mixer, beat the butter and cream cheese on medium-speed until completely smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed; about 2 minutes. Beat in the vanilla extract and salt. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add in the confectioners' sugar, 1 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition, until all of the sugar has been added. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill for at least one hour. Scoop 2 tablespoon sized portions of the mixture onto your prepared baking sheet. Using your hands, form each round into egg shapes. If the mixture is sticking to your hands, try coating them in a little confectioners' sugar. Once all of the eggs have been shaped, place the pan into the freezer for at least an hour.
- In a microwave safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate and 2 teaspoons of oil. Microwave on low power, in 30 second increments, stirring in between each increment, until completely melted. Set aside to cool for a few moments while you prepare the white chocolate, if using. In a second microwave safe bowl, combine the white chocolate and remaining 1 teaspoon of oil. Microwave on low power, in 30 second increments, stirring in between each increment, until completely melted. Set aside to cool slightly while you dip the eggs in the semi-sweet chocolate.
- Carefully dip each butter cream egg in the melted semi-sweet chocolate. I did this by placing each butter cream egg on a small fork, quickly dipping it into the chocolate, then quickly pulling it back out, allowing the excess chocolate drip back into the bowl before placing the egg back on the parchment paper lined baking sheet. Repeat with all of the butter cream eggs. Drizzle a little white chocolate on top of each egg, then set aside until the chocolate has set; about 2 hours. You can speed this up by placing the eggs in the refrigerator.

- In a large bowl using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium speed until creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the confectioners’ sugar and beat on low for 1 minute. Add the cream, vanilla and almond extracts, then beat on high for 3 minutes or until completely smooth and creamy. Taste, then beat in a pinch of salt if needed. (It’s supposed to be very sweet!) The mixture will be very sticky. Cover the bowl tightly with aluminum foil or plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour and up to 1 day. Chilling makes shaping the buttercream filling a little easier.
- Once chilled, remove the mixture from the refrigerator. Scoop 1 Tablespoon of the buttercream mixture and roll into a ball. Flatten the ball between your palms and use your fingers to thin out one end into an egg shape. The egg should be roughly 1/2 – 3/4 inch thick. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining buttercream mixture. The buttercream mixture may be a little crumbly, but the warmth of your hands will bring it together. If you find the buttercream mixture becoming too soft to handle, chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes. Alternatively, you can powder your hands with confectioners’ sugar, which helps prevent the buttercream from sticking to your hands.
- Chill the shaped buttercream eggs in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour and up to 1 day. During the last few minutes of the chilling time, begin melting the chocolate and oil together. You can melt it in a double boiler or the microwave. If using the microwave: place the chocolate and oil in a medium heat-proof bowl. I recommend using a liquid measuring cup because its depth makes dipping really easy. Melt in 20 second increments in the microwave, stirring after each increment until completely melted and smooth. Let the warm chocolate sit for 6-8 minutes to slightly cool before dipping, otherwise it will melt the buttercream filling.
