Sis, that looks like a lot of paganism, also a lot of polyunsaturated fats.

Yes, when will these paganistic practices ever stop? Not to mention the poly fats. Don't worry, Renda, just send all these pagan concoctions to me and I will depose of them properly and you will be absolved of your heathenistic ways.

Form in the shape of a egg - place on cookie sheet and put in freezer for a short time or fridge for one hour.
Melt 4 - 5 oz. Hershey bar's with 1/2 stick of paraffin in a double broiler. Use a long two-prong fork and roll in chocolate, place on waxed paper to dry. Decorate as creatively as you desire. Yield 24
Buttercream eggs
2 stick butter - room temp
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
Almost two pounds of powdered sugar - make firm, but not crumbly.
If you get either too stiff just add a little more butter to soften up so it's not crumbly.
Place in fridge to firm up. Melt one bag of white chocolate chips and 1/2 stick of paraffin. Dip. Yield 12

Re: Makin' Candy Easter Eggs
Can those eggs be used as candles? I didn't know paraffin was edible!

LOL....it's just a little bit and Hershey's bars and chocolate chips already have some in them to help them hold their shape/hardness.

Paraffin coats a lot of food products. I'm not so sure how I feel about eating it, but I do love chocolate. lol (and most chocolate contains wax of some sort to keep it shelf stable at room temperature) Some fruits and vegetables are coated with wax too, ever feel a cucumber?

I looked it up after I read the list of ingredients.

While food-grade paraffin is technically edible, it is not digestible; it passes through the body without being absorbed.
