These were a hit. I put sprinkles on top of mine for a kids kids birthday party, next time I will roll smaller for a "pop in your mouth" these ones I made probably on the larger side, got about 17 from my batch. Thankyou
Yum! I made mine smaller and wrapped them in foil for my toddler to find! So much better than sugar-filled crap for Easter. Don't forget to make chocolate milk with the leftover melted chocolate in the bowl
I just made these in preparation for our Easter Cooking Class tonight. My four year old looooves them!

These were very tasty, and my kids who don't eat prunes consumed them with much delight. I am now making these for mother's day gifts to my mum and mum in law.

Wish I had read bethyn's comment before I started this! That info would have made the process a lot easier, and my "Easter eggs" may look better than a blob of stuff In a cupcake Case!
i made these yesterday , but added a bit of brandy to the mixture...yum really nice, and they are even good for you, you know..extra fibre... thanks for the recipe
Hello I added a whole almond to each chocolate and it was delicious! My friend said it was like a turkish delight! So to make them, I grabbed 1 almond, wrapped 3/4 tablespoon of prune mixture around it and then rolled into egg shape. I froze them for 30mins before dipping them in 85% Dark Chocolate. Next time I might dip them again after they have set to get a thicker chocolate shell. Yum!
Could you add nuts to these?

I made these for our cooking class the other week. A couple of tips when you make them: 1) have wet hands when you roll your prune eggs to help stop them sticking to your hands when you roll them.2) Once rolled I put a toothpick in each one and put them on a tray lined with a sheet of baking paper and then I popped them in the freezer to chill for a little while. This makes them easier to handle and easier to dip in the chocolate plus it helps the chocolate set a bit faster too. 3) I then melted some milk chocolate and piped it in very thin lines over the top to make them look a little prettier (plus any excuse is a good excuse to melt chocolate as there is always some left over!).
Here's a photo of the ones I made:
