SUGAR FREE "CADBURY" EGGS

www.eatingwelllivingthin.wordpress.com

1/4 cup Maltitol syrup

2 tablespoons softened butter

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/8 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups Whey Low Powdered

1 tablespoon cornstarch

2-3 drops yellow food coloring (a drop of red if you want an orange yolk)

6 ounces SF chocolate chips/solid chocolate (OR regular bittersweet/dark)

1 teaspoon shortening

.

In a medium bowl beat until fluffy, the syrup, butter, vanilla, and salt. Slowly beat in the WL powdered and cornstarch until mixture is well combined. Remove 1/3 of the mixture to a small bowl and add the food coloring. Place bowls in the freezer for at least an hour or until hard enough to work with.

Quickly make small yolks and cover them with the white – Place on plastic wrap and mold into egg shapes. IMMEDIATELY place back into the freezer.

In a small bowl SLOWLY melt the chocolate and shortening – stirring every 20 seconds. Be careful – chocolate can scorch in the microwave very quickly. Melt until it’s warm to the touch, but not hot.

Place toothpicks in both ends of each egg (leave the ones you aren’t using in the freezer) and spoon chocolate over the top and bottom. Place on waxed paper and immediately place back in the freezer. Continue until all your eggs are covered. How many eggs you get depends on how big you make them.

And I’m not even going to attempt to give you the stats. If you have to ask…!
