Instructions

1. Bake a chocolate cake according to a recipe or the directions on your box of cake mix. Let the cake cool for half an hour.

2. Crumble the cooled chocolate cake into small crumbles in a large bowl. Add half the contents of a can of icing to the cake. Mix the cake and icing together with your hands. Form the mixture into egg shapes with your hands. Put the eggs on a plate and refrigerate them for at least 1/2 hour. Push a cake pop stick 2 inches into a cake egg. The stick is used for dipping the egg into the chocolate coating and can be removed later.

3. Melt 12 chocolate wafers of each color in individual bowls in a microwave oven for 20 seconds. Stir the chocolate with a spoon. Repeat this until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Holding the stick, dip a chocolate cake egg in the melted chocolate.

4. Shake sprinkles onto the cake egg with a spoon while holding the stick and turning it. Push the bottom of the stick into a block of styrofoam to allow the chocolate to set and harden for 1 hour.

5. Remove the cake pop stick if desired and arrange the eggs on a platter.
