Fruit and Nut Easter Eggs Preparation:


Method:

Combine the sugar, syrup and water in a pan and bring to a boil. Continue heating until the mixture reaches 130°C, as measured by a confectioners' thermometer. Take off the heat then beat in the marshmallow creme until the mixture is almost firm.

Now add the melted butter, icing sugar, candied fruit and nuts. Mix well to combine then set aside to cool until the mixture can be handled. Shape into eggs by hand then dip in the melted chocolate to coat. Set aside on greaseproof (waxed) paper to harden then store in an air-tight tin (these eggs will keep for up to 6 months).
