Description

With these edible Easter baskets, you can make one of two types of delicate baskets with cheerful spring colors.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound of puff pastry
  • 10 seedless grapes
  • 1 tsp. green chocolate shards
  • 1 tsp. yellow chocolate shards
  • 1 egg for frosting
  • 6 oz. cream cheese
  • 1/2 tbsp. condensed milk

Instructions

  1. Turn the oven on and set the temperature to 375ยฐF. Roll out the dough to 1/8-inch thickness. Using a 3 to 4-inch diameter punch, make circles. We ended up with 12 pieces.
  2. Prick six of the circles with a fork. Cut out the centers of the remaining ones. Brush the pieces with a beaten egg and join them in pairs. Cut the remaining pieces into strips and roll them into handles for the baskets.
  3. Use a cookie cutter to form daisies. Place on a baking tray lined with parchment. Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes. The daisies will be ready after 5 minutes. Let cool.
  4. Place the cream cheese at room temperature in a bowl, pour in the condensed milk, and whisk. Transfer the cream to a pastry bag fitted with a star nozzle and pipe into the baskets. Fit the handles.
  5. Add the grapes and shards of chocolate to the baskets.
  6. Add a drop each of orange icing on the daisies and arrange the daisies in the baskets.
