3 recipes to recycle your Easter eggs!

The “eggpressos”

It's the buzz of the moment and it's right in the theme! This is an ingenious way to reuse all types of hollow chocolate eggs from milk to white to pure. Take a chocolate egg, cut off the top, place it in a small cup, and put everything under your coffee machine. You will be able to drink a good chocolate coffee and you will be a hit during your brunches with friends. The "eggspressos" were born in an Australian mobile coffee bar:"karvan Coffee". A great idea that deserves to be shared and enjoyed on your deckchair without guilt.

Kinder Chocolate Pie

Of course, with leftover chocolate you can make lots of desserts. We chose to give you the recipe for the chocolate pie because it's very simple to make, it keeps well and it changes a little from the softness! And since Kinder chocolate is always the star of egg hunt baskets, you might as well reuse it!

For the Kinder pie (6 people), you will need:

– 12 Kinder maxi

– 1 shortcrust pastry

– 10 cl of milk

– 20 cl of liquid cream

Put on your apron and your chocolate playlist (yes, it's easy to sway your hips spatula in hand on "the chocolate woman" by Olivia Ruiz) and let's go!

Preheat your oven to 180°. Spread your dough in the pie pan. Poke small holes with a fork. Blind bake the shortcrust pastry for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, melt the Kinder cut into small pieces over low heat, as well as the milk and cream. Mix without interruption to obtain a smooth and homogeneous texture. (We warn you… it smells excruciatingly good!) . Pour the mixture over the dough and put it back in the oven for 10 to 15 minutes. When everything is good you can decorate while it is still lukewarm and let cool before serving.

We can stay in the Easter theme and use eggs and Kinder Buenos as decoration to make the pie super decadent... Let's enjoy!
