    Awesome. I could never figure out as a youngster, why cadbury's didn't ever come up with one of these..I'd have been first in line.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭PowerHouseDan


    Surprised Cadburys have never actually brought it out as a easter egg, i no they'd get my money

    there could be something hiding in camoflauge in the white part of the creme egg mixture.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,953 ✭✭✭blu_sonic

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,194 ✭✭✭✭Basq

    I don't f*cking believe that. I had been building up to such a project for weeks on air - with phonecalls to Cadbury's and everything - culminating this week in us making a giant creme egg live on air and giving it away. Bugger anyway!

    Anyhoo - we'll still be giving away one of these bad boys on Wednesday night, so if you wanna win, then tune in: 9pm Wednesday NEAR FM 101.6 (or, if outside Dublin, online at http://www.nearfm.ie). Hurrah!

    Talk about stealing my thunder though *mumble mumble*...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,255 ✭✭✭✭The_Minister


    I always wanted to open a Easter Egg and find a gooey centre. As a kid I was always so dissapointed.

    Remember. No competitions allowed on the radio station... it'll have to be a prize draw names into a hat type of thing.... no cream egg related questions or anything like that.

    I'll have to see about winning that egg myself though... are employees of NEAR fm or their familys allowed to enter? I don't think we have a policy on that.

    How much time do you have to have on your hands to be bothered attempting something like this?

    Not long at all. Took us about twenty minutes...

    Duly noted MonkeyFudge - I might put my names into a sock though, just to be rebellious*.

    *- Other prizes include GCN and various other magazines found in NEAR offices :P.

    i prob would have paid more than £17 tbh..if it was made in a clean environment.....of course.

    http://www.internationalrecipesonline.com/recipes/view.pl?2877

    1/2 cup light corn syrup
    1/4 cup butter, softened
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    3 cups powdered sugar
    4 drops yellow food coloring
    2 drops red food coloring
    1 12-ounce bags milk chocolate chips
    2 tablespoons vegetable shortening
    **(semen is optional extra)**

    1. Combine the corn syrup, butter, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl. Beat well with an electric mixer until smooth.
    2. Add powdered sugar, one cup at a time, mixing by hand after each addition. Mix well until creamy.
    3. Remove about 1/3 of the mixture and place it into a small bowl. Add the yellow and red food coloring and stir well to combine.
    4. Cover both mixtures and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
    5. When mixtures are firm, roll a small, marble-size ball from the orange filling, and wrap around it a portion of the white filling that is roughly twice the size. Form this filling into the shape of an egg and place it onto a cookie sheet that has been brushed with a light coating of shortening. Repeat for the remaining filling ingredients, then refrigerate these centers for 3-4 hours or until firm.
    6. Combine the milk chocolate chips with the shortening in a glass or ceramic bowl. Microwave chocolate on high speed for 1 minute, then stir and microwave again for 1 more minute, and stir.
    7. Use a fork to dip each center into the chocolate, tap the fork on the side of the bowl, then place each candy onto wax paper. Chill.
    8. After 1-2 hours of chilling, dip each candy once more and chill for several hours, or until completely firm. Makes 2 dozen candy eggs.


    Microwaving chocolate is a mortal sin. More tips here http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2054906283

    I would manage it I think...taking into account how many I have eaten in one day.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,216 ✭✭✭✭monkeyfudge


    He really should have tried to seperate the yellow from the white. It just looks 'wrong' all mixed up like that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,082 ✭✭✭Tobias Greeshman


    If anything that egg should never be consumed, its probably riddled with who-knows-what from wherever that guy had his hands. Fair going to the person who bought it for £17, because if they have anything between their ears they'll flog it for at least three times the price, making a nice profit.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,110 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    No, s/he should just eat it the lucky bastard...
    Relax about what is on the dudes hands...you would be fine!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,216 ✭✭✭✭monkeyfudge


    How well would it hold up in the post?

    I can just imagine seeing the postman coming up the driveway with his hands covered in gloopy goodness.
