How to make a Scotch Cadbury Creme Egg revealed in tasty recipe that adds MORE chocolate

blog

HERE'S an Scotch Egg recipe with a difference - someone has worked out how to make them with CHOCOLATE.

A genius Reddit user came up with the chocolatey treat for the run-up to Easter - and dubbed it the Creme Scotch Egg.

It's a normal scotch egg, except it does without the meat, breadcrumbs, and actual egg.

The egg is replaced by a creme egg, and then wrapped in a thick layer of chocolate sponge.

It is then given an artery-busting coating of grated and melted chocolate, before being left in the fridge to cool.

Here we explain how to make it.

The ingredients are:

6 Creme eggs

300g Milk chocolate

Cake mixture:

175g Softened unsalted butter

175g Caster sugar

4 Medium eggs

120g Self raising flour

1tsp Baking powder

60g Cocoa powder

Buttercream:

120g Softened unsalted butter

120g Icing Sugar

  • Bake a a very basic chocolate sponge first.
  • After allowing it to cool, crumble the cake in a food processor until the
    texture resembles breadcrumbs.
  • Next add the remainder of the butter, icing sugar and cocoa, then mix until it
    turns into the same consistency as dough or shortcrust pastry.
  • Then take handfuls of the dough, encase each Cadbury's cream egg and roll into
    fist sized balls.
  • Place each egg onto a plate or board covered with baking paper, then pop it in
    the fridge to chill until its firm.
  • Grate 100 grams of chocolate into a bowl or plate and melt the remaining 200g
    of chocolate.
  • Once the eggs are firm take them out of the fridge and dip them into the
    melted chocolate, and immediately roll them through the grated pile.
  • Pop them back in the fridge for a further 10 minutes to cool - then enjoy.
