I got the idea to add the chilli to the eggs from the Lindt chocolate block. Chocolate eggs filled with a creamy chocolate centre with a hint of chilli. This is a great flavour combination, the chilli is subtle but something quite different. I have also added Amarula Cream, Bailey’s and Frangelico on other occasions, the possibilities are endless.
This can make as many eggs as you choose, it depends on the size of the moulds.
