MOUNDS COCONUT CREAM EGGS WITH HERSHEY'S CHOCOLATE COATING
This is not for any dieters! They are addicting - in a good way of course. :) I think I got this off a Mounds coconut package - but don't remember for sure. I have made these at Eastertime for a lot of years. I also like to make them at Christmas time and tint the filling with either red or green food coloring. I am being general on the time. It will probably take a little less time.

Steps:
- Using an electric hand mixer, mix together the cream cheese and butter until it becomes one creamy mixture. Add the vanilla and continue to mix until incorporated.
- Add the butter and cream cheese mixture to the sugar. Then knead together as if making dough. Once the mixture is combined, take pieces that are about the size of your palm and roll them into egg shapes. Place them on wax paper or parchment paper and then in the refrigerator until they are firm.
- Melt the chocolate and shortening in a small bowl set over a pot of warm water, making a "double boiler." Do not let the water boil because you don't want the chocolate to get too warm.
- Stir the chocolate constantly and scrape the sides of bowl.
- Remove the bowl from the pot once the chocolate is melted. Use a fork to dip the prepared butter cream "eggs" into the melted chocolate. Dip the whole egg in the chocolate and gently tap the fork on the side of the bowl to remove extra chocolate. Place the coated egg onto a wax paper-covered tray or cookie sheet. Place the tray in the refrigerator to chill 30 minutes, allowing the chocolate to harden.

Steps:
- 1. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the mashed potatoes and butter. Make sure ahead of time they have come to room t
- 2. Stir in the vanilla.
- 3. Add the powdered sugar and slowly mix all together. It will eventually come together like a moist dough. Place in the refrigerator for about an hour to harden.
- 4. Divide the mixture into 4 and shape into egg shapes. Place on waxed paper on a cookie sheet and return to the refrigerator for3 hours until firm.
- 5. Once the eggs are firm, melt the chocolate chips in the microwave 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between, until smooth.
- 6. Now you will need to cover the eggs in the chocolate. Line another cookie sheet with waxed paper. The best way to cover the eggs is to use a pastry brush/basting brush. Place the egg upside down in your palm and brush the chocolate on the bottom of the egg. Place the egg onto the waxed paper chocolate side down. Cover the top of the egg, making sure you cover all of the egg. You can try to make a fancy pattern with the brush if you want! Cover all 4 eggs and return to the refrigerator to set.
- 7. To serve, it is best to let the egg come to room temperature so that the chocolate shell does not crack when you cut it.
